This choropleth displays waste generation across Mexican states for 2018, with each state colored according to its WasteKgs value using a sequential YlOrRd scale, though missing data is currently rendered as uniform gray. The visualization loads state boundaries from a TopoJSON file via d3.json and converts them to GeoJSON using topojson.feature, while a mesh outlines internal borders. React manages the data-fetching hooks and SVG rendering, with d3.geoMercator projection and d3.geoPath drawing the geographic shapes and graticule grid.
