d3-composite-projections
A collection of D3.js composite map projections for visualizing countries with distant territories.
What is d3-composite-projections?
d3-composite-projections is a JavaScript library that provides a set of custom map projections for D3.js, designed to visualize countries with geographically distant territories on a single map. It addresses the limitation of standard projections that often distort or separate a country's non-contiguous regions, such as overseas departments or islands. The library includes projections for specific countries like the USA, France, Portugal, and Japan, enabling accurate and cohesive geographic data visualization.
Data visualization developers, cartographers, and GIS professionals working with D3.js who need to create maps for countries with dispersed territories, such as for government data, statistical reports, or interactive dashboards.
Developers choose d3-composite-projections because it offers specialized, ready-to-use projections that standard D3.js lacks, saving time and ensuring geographic accuracy. Its seamless integration with D3.js and support for both SVG and Canvas make it a practical tool for creating detailed, country-specific maps without custom projection development.
