kepler.gl VS 3d-force-graph

This might help: https://kepler.gl/

https://kepler.gl/ ?

The line visuals at the bottom are not using Mapbox. Rather they're using the open source Kepler.gl [0], (a user-friendly wrapping of the deck.gl library [1]). These can use Mapbox for the underlying basemap, but the data rendering is done separately.

(This is easy to tell if you look at the page source. The map at the bottom is an embed from a static HTML kepler.gl map [2])

Data taken from: https://live.mybirdbuddy.com/metadata/all\_metadata\_december.csv The tool used to generate the visual: https://kepler.gl/

I exported my Google Maps Record and downloaded it. .json file is downloaded. Then we convert it into .CSV file using a Python script. And then to visualize, online web Kepler.gl is used.

If you know any python programming, check out Kepler. It was a part of Uber's mapping systems that became open source. It can make pretty good looking maps. https://kepler.gl/

Neat, also worth checking out is kepler.gl, and datashader

I used neo4j and https://github.com/vasturiano/3d-force-graph to make the visuals. Full graph is here: https://lewington-pitsos.github.io/committees/committees.html

Tool: The visuals were made with neo4j, and for the 3d graph I also used https://github.com/vasturiano/3d-force-graph

Oof, yeah, I hadn't even noticed that "rouster" somehow got almost perfectly overlapped onto the line linking "lobster" to "louster". I'd have to experiment with more layout algorithms and their parameters. In the meantime, the interactive viz (all I did was throw JSON at 3d-force-graph) gets around the layout problem by letting you freely rotate the scene and drag nodes: https://pjleimbigler.github.io/wordgraph/graph.html

The Examples section on this page shows many different types of 3D graphs. The Text example presents the graph as text nodes.

I will open source the whole thing at some point, but need to cleanup a bit first It is a simple page built using Svelte, and then the graph rendering is done using this library https://github.com/vasturiano/3d-force-graph

anyway it is a simple svelte app with typescript and was primarily made using this three.js library https://github.com/vasturiano/3d-force-graph i will open source my own code at some point but now it is a bit messy

thanks, it doesn't look like the right kind of visualisation, i'm looking for something to render lots of nodes (10-100s of thousands), so probably something along the lines of this would be better: https://github.com/vasturiano/3d-force-graph , except that 3d force graph determines the positions in space by fitting, rather than specifying positions. (having looked at it again, it may be possible to modify it to fix positions however..)

https://github.com/vasturiano/3d-force-graph is the library used, if anyone is curious
