This visualization displays recorded incidents of missing migrants, combining a world map with a time-series histogram to reveal both geographic and temporal patterns. Proportional circles on the map represent the total number of dead and missing per location, while the histogram aggregates these totals by month. Built with React and D3 v5, the map uses `geoNaturalEarth1` and `geoPath` to render land and graticules, and the histogram uses `histogram` and `timeMonths` for binning. Data comes from the Missing Migrants Project subset CSV.

AI-generated description

A world map showing cities with population greater than 50,000. City data from Simplemaps: World Cities Database.

Country boundaries from World Atlas TopoJSON, polished for visual style, including graticules.

Inspired by earlier work from 2018: bl.ocks.org: Migrant Deaths over Time.
