Datamaps

Interactive maps for data visualizations. Bundled into a single Javascript file.

Datamaps is intended to provide some data visualizations based on geographical data. It's SVG-based, can scale to any screen size, and includes everything inside of 1 script file. It heavily relies on the amazing D3.js library.

Out of the box it includes support for choropleths and bubble maps (see demos), but it's not limited to just that. Its new plugin system allows for the addition of any type of visualization over the map.

Documentation

Getting Started

1. Include D3.js and Topojson on your page
2. Include Datamaps.js on your page
3. Add a container, set the height and width and position to relative
4. Create a

   new Datamaps(options)

   , passing in at least an

   element

   option

Example:

html

This should render a new world map with a standard projection.

via NPM

1. npm install datamaps

2. Refer to file in

   dist

   directory, like:

via Bower

1. bower install datamaps

2. Refer to file in

   dist

   directory, like:

USA Only Map

A map of the USA with an Albers based projection will be default if you only include

datamaps.usa.min.js

datamaps.all.min.js

html

Changing the default fill colors

Disabling popup or hover effects

Using custom maps

By specifying a

dataUrl

If you are using a custom map, you'll probably want to specify your own

setProjection

setProjection

element

options

path

d3.geo.path

projection

d3.geo.projection

The example above will result in albersUsa projection.

Read about other D3.js projections

Read more about TopoJSON

You can create any country's map using custom maps.

Follow the below steps:- 1. Find the {xyz}.topo.json file for you country xyz. You can find from https://github.com/markmarkoh/datamaps/tree/master/dist. 2. Extract Datamap.prototype.{xyz}Topo json and save it file named {xyz}.topo.json 3. If the state codes contains dot(.) in the topo json, then you need to remove the dot from the code e.g, if your state code is CA.AL, remove CA. part to get 2-digit ISO code AL. If the states code are already in 2-digit ISO or do't have dot(.) then don't do any modification follow next steps. 4. Objects country name in {xyz}.topo.json should be same as you declared in the Datamap scope. e.g, for Canada, in canada.topo.json we have {"type":"Topology","objects":{"can":{"type":"GeometryCollection"}}} and we have provided scope as 'canada' in the canada.html page. So this case 'can' in canada.topo.json must be as 'canada' i.e {"type":"Topology","objects":{"canada":{"type":"GeometryCollection"}}}. 5. You need to override setProjection method, which is explained above three countires. You can refer any one. 6. Done

Here are the some examples of different countries maps.

1. Bubble map on India Geographical region

india.html

 var bubble_map = new Datamap({
            element: document.getElementById('india'),
            scope: 'india',
            geographyConfig: {
                popupOnHover: true,
                highlightOnHover: true,
                borderColor: '#444',
                borderWidth: 0.5,
                dataUrl: 'https://rawgit.com/Anujarya300/bubble_maps/master/data/geography-data/india.topo.json'
                //dataJson: topoJsonData
            },
            fills: {
                'MAJOR': '#306596',
                'MEDIUM': '#0fa0fa',
                'MINOR': '#bada55',
                defaultFill: '#dddddd'
            },
            data: {
                'JH': { fillKey: 'MINOR' },
                'MH': { fillKey: 'MINOR' }
            },
            setProjection: function (element) {
                var projection = d3.geo.mercator()
                    .center([78.9629, 23.5937]) // always in [East Latitude, North Longitude]
                    .scale(1000);
                var path = d3.geo.path().projection(projection);
                return { path: path, projection: projection };
            }
});

Set the correct projection for India map on world map with the help of Longitude and Latitute of India (you can google it India Longitude and Latitute)

Please use india.toto.json for India geopraphy json data from https://github.com/Anujarya300/bubble_maps/blob/master/data/geography-data/india.topo.json, otherwise your map wont work. (I have truncated IND. from all state ISO code(2-digit ISO code), e.g IND.JH for Jharkhand state truncated to JH)  

Please note in setProjection method, I have set [78.9629, 23.5937] to locate center point for India in the world map. That means Latitude = 78.9629 E and Longitude = 23.5937 N. Remember Latitute and Longitude are always East and North. For western countries, Latitude are in West so make it convert as Negative of East. e.g 102.3421 W ==> -102.3421 E.

2. Bubble map on Canada Geographical region

canada.html ``` var bubblemap = new Datamap({ element: document.getElementById('canada'), scope: 'canada', geographyConfig: { popupOnHover: true, highlightOnHover: true, borderColor: '#444', borderWidth: 0.5, dataUrl: 'https://rawgit.com/Anujarya300/bubblemaps/master/data/geography-data/canada.topo.json' //dataJson: topoJsonData }, fills: { 'MAJOR': '#306596', 'MEDIUM': '#0fa0fa', 'MINOR': '#bada55', defaultFill: '#dddddd' }, data: { 'JH': { fillKey: 'MINOR' }, 'MH': { fillKey: 'MINOR' } }, setProjection: function (element) { var projection = d3.geo.mercator() .center([-106.3468, 68.1304]) // always in [East Latitude, North Longitude] .scale(250) .translate([element.offsetWidth / 2, element.offsetHeight / 2]);

            var path = d3.geo.path().projection(projection);
            return { path: path, projection: projection };
        }
    });

###### Set the correct projection for Canada map on world map with the help of Longitude and Latitute of Canada (you can google it Canada Longitude and Latitute)

Please use canada.toto.json for India geopraphy json data from https://github.com/Anujarya300/bubble_maps/blob/master/data/geography-data/canada.topo.json, otherwise your map wont work. (I have truncated CA. from all state ISO code(2-digit ISO code), e.g CA.TN to TN)
Please note in setProjection method, I have set [-106.3468, 68.1304] to locate center point for Canada in the world map. That means
Latitude = 106.3468 W and Longitude = 68.1304 N. Remember Latitute and Longitude are always East and North. For western countries, Latitude are in West so make it convert as Negative of East. e.g 102.3421 W ==> -102.3421 E.
You can adjust this latitude and longitude co-ordinates by minor changing. 
e.g, if your map is not showing full view of North then you can change 68.1304 N to 70.3200 N or 71.3200 etc.
     if your map is not showing full view of East then you can change 32.1304 E to 70.3200 E or 30.3200 etc.

Creating a Choropleth
Probably the most common type of map visualization, where different states or countries are color coded.

You'll need to know the 2 letter state code ('NY' for New York) or the 3 letter country code ('SCT' for Scotland) to fill in areas.
<script>
    var map = new Datamap({
        element: document.getElementById('container'),
        fills: {
            HIGH: '#afafaf',
            LOW: '#123456',
            MEDIUM: 'blue',
            UNKNOWN: 'rgb(0,0,0)',
            defaultFill: 'green'
        },
        data: {
            IRL: {
                fillKey: 'LOW',
                numberOfThings: 2002
            },
            USA: {
                fillKey: 'MEDIUM',
                numberOfThings: 10381
            }
        }
    });

    // Draw a legend for this map
    map.legend();
</script>
</pre>
<p>This will draw a world map and fill in IRL (Ireland) with the corresponding </p><pre>fills.LOW</pre> and USA with <pre>fills.MEDIUM</pre>.

<p>You can also use </p><pre>fill: color</pre> for each state if you don't want to define a <pre>fillKey</pre>.

<p>Colors will be applied in this order: </p><pre>fillKey</pre>, <pre>fill</pre>, <pre>defaultFill</pre>.

<h4>Updating a choropleth after initial drawing</h4>
<pre class="language-javascript">map.updateChoropleth({
   USA: {fillKey: 'LOW'},
   CAN: '#0fa0fa'
});
</pre>
<p>You can specify either a literal color (as a string), or an object with a fillKey property.</p>

<h4>Resetting a choropleth to <pre>defaultFill</pre>
</h4>

<p>The following will reset the entire map to the </p><pre>defaultFill</pre> and update <pre>CA</pre> to be filled green.
<pre>js
map.updateChoropleth({CA: 'green'}, {reset: true})
</pre>

<p>The following will reset the entire map to </p><pre>defaultFill</pre>
<pre>js
map.updateChoropleth(null, {reset: true})
</pre>

<p>The following will reset the entire map to </p><pre>defaultFill</pre>, but update the corresponding data of NY.
<pre>js
map.updateChoropleth({NY: {numberOfVoters: 55452}}, {reset: true})
</pre>

<p>You can also add a map legend with the </p><pre>legend</pre> plugin (used above)

<h4>Choropleth with auto-calculated color</h4>

<p>Example <a href="https://github.com/markmarkoh/datamaps/blob/master/src/examples/highmaps_world.html">highmaps_world.html</a> explains how to create colorized map based on some quantity of things, <a href="http://jsbin.com/kuvojohapi/1/edit?html,output">Live Demo</a></p>

<p>Example result:</p>

<p><img src="https://github.com/markmarkoh/datamaps/raw/master/src/screenshots/datamap_highmap_exmaple.jpg" alt="auto calculated color"></p>

<h4>Custom popup on hover</h4>

<p>Expanding on the previous example of using </p><pre>data</pre>, any property passed into <pre>data</pre> will be sent to the <pre>popupTemplate</pre> function, which can be override to display custom messages.
<pre>html
<script>
    var map = new Datamap({
        element: document.getElementById('container'),
        fills: {
            HIGH: '#afafaf',
            LOW: '#123456',
            MEDIUM: 'blue',
            UNKNOWN: 'rgb(0,0,0)',
            defaultFill: 'green'
        },
        data: {
            IRL: {
                fillKey: 'LOW',
                numberOfThings: 2002
            },
            USA: {
                fillKey: 'MEDIUM',
                numberOfThings: 10381
            }
        },
        geographyConfig: {
            popupTemplate: function(geo, data) {
                return ['<div class="hoverinfo"><strong>',
                        'Number of things in ' + geo.properties.name,
                        ': ' + data.numberOfThings,
                        '</strong></div>'].join('');
            }
        }
    });
</script>
</pre>

<p></p><pre>geographyConfig.popupTemplate</pre>, <pre>bubblesConfig.popupTemplate</pre> and <pre>arcConfig.popupTemplate</pre> just needs to return an HTML string, so feel free to use <a href="https://github.com/wycats/handlebars.js/">Handlebars</a> or <a href="http://underscorejs.org/#template">Underscore</a> templates (instead of the terrible Array.join method above).

<h4>Bubbles</h4>

<p>Bubbles in a core plugin that will render circles('bubbles') on different parts of the map. Each of these bubbles can be color coded in the same way a choropleth is color coded (see above 'Choropleth' example).
```js
var bombMap = new Datamap({
    element: document.getElementById('map_bombs'),
    scope: 'world',
    geographyConfig: {
        popupOnHover: false,
        highlightOnHover: false
    },
    fills: {
        'USA': '#1f77b4',
        'RUS': '#9467bd',
        'PRK': '#ff7f0e',
        'PRC': '#2ca02c',
        'IND': '#e377c2',
        'GBR': '#8c564b',
        'FRA': '#d62728',
        'PAK': '#7f7f7f',
        defaultFill: '#EDDC4E'
    },
    data: {
        'RUS': {fillKey: 'RUS'},
        'PRK': {fillKey: 'PRK'},
        'PRC': {fillKey: 'PRC'},
        'IND': {fillKey: 'IND'},
        'GBR': {fillKey: 'GBR'},
        'FRA': {fillKey: 'FRA'},
        'PAK': {fillKey: 'PAK'},
        'USA': {fillKey: 'USA'}
    }
});</p>
<pre> var bombs = [{
    name: 'Joe 4',
    radius: 25,
    yield: 400,
    country: 'USSR',
    fillKey: 'RUS',
    significance: 'First fusion weapon test by the USSR (not "staged")',
    date: '1953-08-12',
    latitude: 50.07,
    longitude: 78.43
  },{
    name: 'RDS-37',
    radius: 40,
    yield: 1600,
    country: 'USSR',
    fillKey: 'RUS',
    significance: 'First "staged" thermonuclear weapon test by the USSR (deployable)',
    date: '1955-11-22',
    latitude: 50.07,
    longitude: 78.43

  },{
    name: 'Tsar Bomba',
    radius: 75,
    yield: 50000,
    country: 'USSR',
    fillKey: 'RUS',
    significance: 'Largest thermonuclear weapon ever tested—scaled down from its initial 100 Mt design by 50%',
    date: '1961-10-31',
    latitude: 73.482,
    longitude: 54.5854
  }
];
</pre>
<p>//draw bubbles for bombs
bombMap.bubbles(bombs, {
    popupTemplate: function (geo, data) {
            return ['</p><div class="hoverinfo">' +  data.name,
            '<br>Payload: ' +  data.yield + ' kilotons',
            '<br>Country: ' +  data.country + '',
            '<br>Date: ' +  data.date + '',
            '</div>'].join('');
    }
});


The first parameter to 
bubbles
 should be an array of objects, each with at least 3 properties:


latitude
longitude
radius


Optionally, pass in 
fillKey
 to color code the bubble, and pass in any other data you want to render in a popup template which can be overridden in the options parameter.

For further customization, you can set these properties on each bubble to override the options parameter (or default options):


borderColor
borderWidth
borderOpacity
fillOpacity


The second parameter is the 
options
 param, where you can override any of the default options (documented below)

Live updating of bubbles

You can continue to call 
bubbles
 on the same map instance and the map will auto update itself. Any bubble previously drawn that's not included in subsequent calls will be removed from the UI.

map.bubbles([])
 will erase all bubbles.

Labels

For USA maps you can add 2 letter (i.e., NY, TX) labels to each state. To add labels, after created the map:
map.labels();

The following options are allowed:



labelColor
 // Font color, default: #000

lineWidth
 // Line width for New England states, default: 1

fontSize
 // Font size, default: 10

fontFamily
 // Font family, default: 'Verdana'

customLabelText
 // Replaces 2 letter labels with custom


An example for using the options:
map.labels({labelColor: 'blue', fontSize: 12});

An example for using the customLabelText

This accepts an object whose keys are uppercase 2 letter state codes.
Values will be substituted for default label text
Any missing values default to 2 state letters
javascript
newLabels = {'AK':'Alaska', 'AL':'123',.......};
map.labels({'customLabelText': newLabels});

Example custom-labels.html for using the customLabelText



Zooming

You can override the default projection by setting your own 
setProjection(element)
 function.
Example here
var map = new Datamap({
  scope: 'world',
  element: document.getElementById('container1'),
  setProjection: function(element) {
    var projection = d3.geo.equirectangular()
      .center([19, -3])
      .rotate([4.4, 0])
      .scale(400)
      .translate([element.offsetWidth / 2, element.offsetHeight / 2]);
    var path = d3.geo.path()
      .projection(projection);

return {path: path, projection: projection};
  },

Using with jQuery

If jQuery is present on the page when the Datamaps library loads, it'll automatically create a jQuery plugin called 
datamaps
 that can be used like:
html
    


Events

All events are bubbled up to the root 
svg
 element and to listen to events, use the 
done
 callback.

Responsive Maps

Set 
responsive
 to 
true
 and then listen for 
resize
 events on 
window
, and call 
Datamaps.prototype.resize
.

Avoid setting the height and width of the 
container
 with hard pixel values, instead use percent values. (use 
50%
 instead of 
500px
.

If the aspect ratio of your custom map is not the default 
16:9
 (
0.5625
), you should use the 
aspectRatio
 option to set it appropriately (eg. 
0.3
 for a 
3:1
 aspect ratio).





Default Options
  {
    scope: 'world', // Currently supports 'usa' and 'world', however with custom map data you can specify your own
