#ObservableJS

0 posts0 participants0 posts today

Day 4 of the #30DayMapChallenge is "A bad map".

I went with the well-worn “places starting with 'bad' in the U.S.’ theme, and explain why in the post.

Uses #ObservableJS in #Quarto (I hacked in an update to v6.0.0 of the OJS parser to avoid having to embed a notebook, again).

Also uses #DuckDB to make a #GeoJSON from the #Geonames US names TSV.

You can select which place points to display via the Observable Inputs table / search bar.

@allison_horst @deepsha @tanya_shapiro had an inspiring discussion about #ObservableJS for interactive #DataViz.

Since #OJS uses the grammar of graphics, it should be a straight forward transition from #RStats and #ggplot2.

Tanya’s and Deepsha’s advice for beginners: just start and start simple!
