Mapping Temporal Datasets with D3
Patrick Butler · Cartographic Perspectives · 2016
Many JavaScript libraries and APIs intended for mapping require long lines of code to perform even the simplest forms of animation.The Data-Driven Documents (D3) software library, however, offers a very simple option for quickly presenting a series of maps.D3's library contains various features that allow for geographic data to be bound to SVG objects in a webpage and presented chronologically.Animations can often be created with one short line of code.
