Chapter 4. Creating a Map
It's been quite a ride so far. We've gone through all the different aspects that encompass the creation of a map. We've touched on the basics of SVG, JavaScript, and D3. Now, it's time to put all the pieces together and actually have a final deliverable product. In this chapter, we will cover the following topics through a series of experiments:
- Foundation – creating your basic map
- Experiment 1 – adjusting the bounding box
- Experiment 2 – creating choropleths
- Experiment 3 – adding click events to our visualization
- Experiment 4 – using updates and transitions to enhance our visualization
- Experiment 5 – adding points of interest
- Experiment 6 – adding visualizations as a point of interest
