It might not surprise you, given the robust visualization capabilities of D3, that it is also great for creating interactive web maps and mapping datasets. Mapping in D3, in fact, is easier than you might think. Drawing a basic map doesn't take any more code than a bar chart, line chart, or scatter plot. Web mapping in D3 can allow for animation, visualization, and interaction. You can also coordinate charts and plots with your map. As we go along, you will learn D3 supports topology and even projections, making it very powerful! In this session, let's introduce mapping with D3 by going over some fundamentals, getting some data on the map, and then showing one example of how we can do a time slider interaction. Lastly, we'll look at TopoJSON, a GeoJSON that supports topology, and some examples of choropleth maps and how you can create those. The map below is a nice example of a [choropleth map from Mike Bostock](https://beta.observablehq.com/@mbostock/d3-choropleth), the creator of D3. It uses a number of features you might be familiar with if you have done some web mapping. The county geometry is stored as a JSON (a [TopoJSON](https://github.com/topojson/topojson/wiki) in fact, but more on this later...), and the data in a Tab-separated format (TSV). The rest of the implementation is D3 JavaScript. One important observation, note that the map is not in a [Web Mercator projection](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_Mercator_projection), but rather an [Albers projection](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albers_projection). D3 has a large built in [projection library](https://github.com/d3/d3/blob/master/API.md#projections) that you can reference when mapping data. To see the code behind, view the notebook it has been imported from. `3d:T667,md` ### 3. Projections **D3, Projections, and GeoJSON** D3 has some internal functionality that can turn GeoJSON data into screen coordinates based on the projection you set. This is not unlike other libraries such as [Leaflet.js](https://leafletjs.com/), but the result is much more open-ended, not constrained to shapes on a tiled Mercator map.^{[1](http://maptimeboston.github.io/d3-maptime/)} So, yes, D3 supports projections. Jason Davies has a fantastic illustration of various projections in [this example](http://www.jasondavies.com/maps/transition/). D3 has a handful of [projections built-in](https://github.com/d3/d3/blob/master/API.md#projections), but there are tons more supported in an [external plugin](https://github.com/d3/d3-geo-projection/). In our example, we set properties for our projection by passing them to a projection object ([d3.geoAlbers()](https://github.com/d3/d3-geo/blob/master/README.md#geoAlbers)) and save them as a variable. We can refer to this when we use the D3 object for generating map linework. The properties are **scale**, **rotate**, **center**, and **translate**. - **Scale** sets the scale of the map (ie 1 is the smallest, the larger the numbr the more zoomed in you are, you can fiddle with this until it works). Rotate and center set parameters for the project. A full global map fits nicely around 100. - **Rotate** the map sets the longitude of origin for our Albers projection. **Center** sets a single standard parallel. - Lastly, **translate** is a pixel offset, commonly specified to ensure that the center of the projection is in the center of the viewing area. `3e:T50b, ## Add Data to your Map To add data to the map, follow the process above and repeat it. Let's make a map using a sample rodent incident dataset. ### Trees! Using Tree Census Data We will use the [NYC 2015 Street Tree Census](https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Environment/2015-Street-Tree-Census-Tree-Data/uvpi-gqnh), a dataset of 2015 Street Tree Census, conducted by volunteers and staff organized by NYC Parks & Recreation and partner organizations. The dataset has over 684k entries! Instead of bugging down our computers and browser with such a dataset, or parallelizing loading and display of information, we will be working with a smaller subset of the dataset. To add this to our map, it is a two step process. It follows the exact same principles of the previous step, except we do not have to set up our projection information or create the map. ### 1. Load the Data into your Document Load the NYC Tree Census dataset as follows. [**Note that in an HTML document**, you could load it in this way, or you could modify the JSON to include an object assignment before the open brackets (i.e., add \`rodentData =\` directly at the beginning of the JSON file) and then call it as a script in the head of the HTML document. But we don't have to worry about that in Observable.] 3f:T70b,md` ## Adding Map Interaction Once you understand how you load data into D3, adding interaction to your map is actually quite easy. Simply put, you use D3 to change the properties of page elements and incorporate event listeners, such as mouseovers and clicks. To illustrate this, let's set up our map of rodent incidents to display some information, like an address, when you interact with the map. For the example, let's set it up to show a property of the data when you hover over an incident. In addition to our map title, we can add an element that will hold some information that can change when we hover over an incident. We will style this with the CSS we added in the last step, adding a line of code or two to a style block below. ### 1. Add Page Elements To start, we need page elements that can be populated to hold a title and some popup information on our map. The concept is that we want to create a page element that we can update the language in according to a data value. You'll find the replicated chart below, after an HTML block which holds both a title in the header and a div object with id 'label'. ### 2. Add Event Listeners and Change Properties of Page Attibutes by adding Classes Next, we can append two \`.on()\` methods to the end of the \`trees.selectAll("path")\` method. One selects the \`#label\` div on mouseover and assigns it the address of the point, the other removes the text on mouseout. However, we run into the issue that the label moves the map down. For that, we must modify the CSS above. ### 3. Update the Cascading Style Sheets Lastly, update the style sheets to change colors and set fonts and other style elements. Uncomment the style block below the chart. This will position some of the elements on our page, and provide some simple styling. `40:T537,// your code here { // Create SVG let svg = d3.select(DOM.svg(width, height)); // Append empty placeholder g element to the SVG // g will contain geometry elements let g = svg.append("g"); let rodents = svg.append("g"); // Create Event Handlers for mouse function handleMouseOver(d, i) { // Add interactivity // Use D3 to select element, change color and size d3.select(this).attr("fill", "orange"); } function handleMouseOut(d, i) { // Use D3 to select element, change color back to normal d3.select(this).attr("fill", "steelblue"); } // Classic D3... Select non-existent elements, bind the data, append the elements, and apply attributes g.selectAll("path") .data(nycBoroughs.features) .enter() .append("path") .attr("fill", "#ccc") .attr("stroke", "#333") .attr("d", nycGeoPath); rodents .selectAll("path") .data(treeGeoJSON) .enter() .append("path") .attr("fill", "steelblue") .attr("stroke", "none") .attr("opacity", 0.5) .attr("d", nycGeoPath) .attr("class", "incident") .on("click", (d) => d3.select("#label").text(d.properties.spc_common)) .on("mouseover", handleMouseOver) .on("mouseout", handleMouseOut); // .on("mouseout", d => d3.select("#label").text("Empty Selection")); return svg.node(); }41:T59d,md` ## Part 2: Using TopoJSON and 'Joining Data' ### Introducing TopoJSON D3 works with two types of geographic JSON, [GeoJSON](http://geojson.org/), and a format called [TopoJSON](https://github.com/mbostock/topojson). ### GeoJSON vs. TopoJSON TopoJSON is an extension of GeoJSON that encodes topology. Rather than representing geometries discretely, geometries in TopoJSON files are stitched together from shared line segments called arcs. This technique is similar to Matt Bloch’s MapShaper and the Arc/Info Export format, .e00. TopoJSON eliminates redundancy, allowing related geometries to be stored efficiently in the same file. For example, the shared boundary between California and Nevada is represented only once, rather than being duplicated for both states. A single TopoJSON file can contain multiple feature collections without duplication, such as states and counties. ([TopoJSON Wiki](https://github.com/topojson/topojson/wiki)) As a result, TopoJSON is substantially more compact than GeoJSON. The above shapefile of U.S. counties is 2.2M as a GeoJSON file, but only 436K as a boundary mesh, a reduction of 80.4% even without simplification.^{[3](https://github.com/topojson/topojson/wiki)} In order to use TopoJSONs, you have to add an extra [TopoJSON library](https://github.com/mbostock/topojson) to your document that contains the necessary components and methods. Import the TopoJSON Library below. `42:T43c,md` ### 3. Classify by creating a Color function using \`d3.scale\` Next we classify our unemployment data into categories. D3 has a couple of different methods for doing this that are written into the [\`d3-scale\`](https://github.com/d3/d3-scale/blob/master/README.md#api-reference) module. These include continuous, quantize, quantile, ordinal, and threshold methods. We will use the quantize scale, which uniformly breaks up a continuous domain into a set of discrete categories that we give in the range. To use scale in D3, we create an function expression using the [\`d3.scaleQuantize()\`](https://github.com/d3/d3-scale/blob/master/README.md#quantize-scales) method. This takes the domain and range principles learned in the first session, and applies them using color. The code for our domain and range using the threshold method looks like the following. The scale will then match each value that we define in the range to a [sequential range of purples](https://github.com/d3/d3-scale-chromatic/blob/master/README.md#schemePurples) (which is already coded into D3). `43:[] 38:{"id":"37b8f4d58bfc36f4","slug":"session-2-1b-intro-to-d3-js-mapping-data-with-d3","title":"Session 2.1b - Intro to D3.js: Mapping Data with D3","thumbnail":"49e3b8e7b5c25c76853ac31b4ed41e895e2facb91573182f4e68e995d0ccb899","access_level":"public","create_time":"$D2024-02-13T02:41:28.292Z","update_time":"$D2024-02-13T18:23:04.685Z","view_time":null,"first_public_time":"$D2024-02-13T02:41:28.292Z","has_unpublished_edits":null,"fork":{"id":"2dbea402ab1df320","slug":"4-182-week-9b-intro-to-d3-js-mapping-data-with-d3","title":"Session 1.5b - Intro to D3.js: Mapping Data with D3","owner":{"id":"7be24cbfb3203dab","login":"cesandoval","name":"Carlos Sandoval Olascoaga"}},"stars":0,"starred":false,"owner":{"type":"team","id":"7be24cbfb3203dab","login":"cesandoval","name":"Carlos Sandoval Olascoaga","avatar_url":"https://avatars-next.observableusercontent.com/932dec7ee5c2e52477e2a80482b05fdab063507b7c3029a5f6bc1ff0e03bbc36","tier":"starter_2024","bio":"Big walls, cities, computing, and design.","followed_by_you":false,"follows_you":false},"version":944,"publish_version":null,"role":null,"authored":false,"authors":[{"type":"individual","id":"7750258d506a87a9","login":"cesandoval","name":"Carlos Sandoval Olascoaga","avatar_url":"https://avatars-next.observableusercontent.com/932dec7ee5c2e52477e2a80482b05fdab063507b7c3029a5f6bc1ff0e03bbc36","tier":null,"bio":"Big walls, cities, computing, and design.","followed_by_you":false,"follows_you":false}],"members":[{"type":"individual","id":"7750258d506a87a9","login":"cesandoval","name":"Carlos Sandoval Olascoaga","avatar_url":"https://avatars-next.observableusercontent.com/932dec7ee5c2e52477e2a80482b05fdab063507b7c3029a5f6bc1ff0e03bbc36","tier":null,"role":"editor"}],"comments":[],"custom_thumbnail":false,"trashed":false,"lapsed":null,"subscribed":null,"forks":0,"collection":{"id":"d895c4b27c4da933","slug":"inam5983-design-urban-tech-and-community-participation","title":"INAM5983: Design, Urban Tech and Community Participation","owner":{"id":"7be24cbfb3203dab","login":"cesandoval","name":"Carlos Sandoval Olascoaga"}},"type":"notebook","body":{"titling":"auto","title":"Session 2.1b - Intro to D3.js: Mapping Data with D3","cells":[{"id":0,"value":"md`# Session 2.1b - Intro to D3.js: Mapping Data with D3`","pinned":false,"hidden":false,"mode":"ojs","author":"$undefined","summary":"$undefined","tool":"$undefined","providerMetadata":"$undefined","attachments":"$undefined","output":"$undefined","database":"$undefined"},{"id":8,"value":"$3c","pinned":false,"hidden":false,"mode":"ojs","author":"$undefined","summary":"$undefined","tool":"$undefined","providerMetadata":"$undefined","attachments":"$undefined","output":"$undefined","database":"$undefined"},{"id":13,"value":"//import {chart} from \"@mbostock/d3-choropleth\"\nimport {chart as choropleth} from \"@chagel/d3-choropleth\"","pinned":true,"hidden":false,"mode":"ojs","author":"$undefined","summary":"$undefined","tool":"$undefined","providerMetadata":"$undefined","attachments":"$undefined","output":"$undefined","database":"$undefined"},{"id":18,"value":"choropleth","pinned":true,"hidden":false,"mode":"ojs","author":"$undefined","summary":"$undefined","tool":"$undefined","providerMetadata":"$undefined","attachments":"$undefined","output":"$undefined","database":"$undefined"},{"id":29,"value":"md`\n**So how does this work?**\n\nThe following tutorial will explore, in two parts, how mapping works with D3.\n`","pinned":false,"hidden":false,"mode":"ojs","author":"$undefined","summary":"$undefined","tool":"$undefined","providerMetadata":"$undefined","attachments":"$undefined","output":"$undefined","database":"$undefined"},{"id":33,"value":"md`\n## Part 1: D3 Mapping from the Ground Up\n\nLet's start a bit more simple and revisit our rat example and create a basic map of Boston neighborhoods.

Set up the Path Generator\nPath Generators - Geo Paths\nNext in our code, we create something called a Path Generator, or Geo Path. The primary mechanism for displaying data in D3 is [d3.geoPath](https://github.com/d3/d3-geo/blob/master/README.md#geoPath). This class is similar to [d3.line](https://github.com/d3/d3-shape/blob/master/README.md#line) and the other SVG shape generators: given a geometry or feature object, it generates the path data string suitable for the \"d\" attribute of an SVG path element.\n\nBasically, the Geo Path generator is a function. One of the methods it takes is the projection you define. It reads lat/lon coordinates from a GeoJSON feature, algorithmically turns them into screen coordinates according to your specification in the projection method, and returns an SVG path string. This can then be drawn on your screen. We set the parameters in our code already, so this code is simple.\n`","pinned":false,"hidden":false,"mode":"ojs","author":"$undefined","summary":"$undefined","tool":"$undefined","providerMetadata":"$undefined","attachments":"$undefined","output":"$undefined","database":"$undefined"},{"id":842,"value":"// Create GeoPath function that uses built-in D3 functionality to turn\n// lat/lon coordinates into screen coordinates\nnycGeoPath = d3.geoPath().projection(nycProj)","pinned":true,"hidden":false,"mode":"ojs","author":"$undefined","summary":"$undefined","tool":"$undefined","providerMetadata":"$undefined","attachments":"$undefined","output":"$undefined","database":"$undefined"},{"id":766,"value":"md`## In Class Example\nModify the projection code and use the [geoEquirectangular()](https://github.com/d3/d3-geo/blob/master/README.md#geoEquirectangular) projection for the *bos_geoPath* function\n`","pinned":false,"hidden":false,"mode":"ojs","author":"$undefined","summary":"$undefined","tool":"$undefined","providerMetadata":"$undefined","attachments":"$undefined","output":"$undefined","database":"$undefined"},{"id":775,"value":"// your code here\n","pinned":false,"hidden":false,"mode":"ojs","author":"$undefined","summary":"$undefined","tool":"$undefined","providerMetadata":"$undefined","attachments":"$undefined","output":"$undefined","database":"$undefined"},{"id":130,"value":"md`\n### 5.

The one part that might be confusing is the setting of the d attribute. This is the attribute that defines the coordinates of a path. We pass a function to it that draws the path according to the coordinates defined by the function, and the coordinates are provided by our GeoJSON.\n\nUsing a GeoJSON of NYC Boroughs, The result is the following map.

Remove that County Stroke and Add State Outlines\nPolish our map a bit by removing the thick black stroke on each county. Simply remove the stroke property of our append.\n\nNext, use append one more time simply to create state outlines. Here, we want to use the topojson.mesh method to simplify our strokes. This method iterates through each line of geometry that is shared by multiple features. The filter function as the third argument is called for each geometry and takes two arguments representing the two geometry objects that share the arc. Each arc is only included in the mesh if the return to this function is true.
