Mapping 2000 Years Of Population Change


Two Thousand Years of Urban Growth is a 3D globe visualizing population alter unopen to the basis over the final 2,000 years. The map was made yesteryear Esri using their novel ArcGIS API for JavaScript amongst D3.js.

City populations unopen to the basis are shown on the globe amongst 3d bar charts placed over each city. The timeline slide command allows yous to accommodate the engagement inwards club to thought the metropolis populations for dissimilar dates throughout history. If yous choose a city's bar on the globe yous tin too thought a trouble nautical chart showing the city's population over the final 2,000 years.

The globe is an impressive demonstration of Esri's ArcGIS API for JavaScript. However this is i instance where I intend the information doesn't involve to locomote mapped. Using a 3D globe is likely non the best agency to visualize historical population growth. I intend the information could locomote to a greater extent than easily conveyed amongst only a uncomplicated dynamic bar nautical chart too timeline control.
