  • map with fill pattern. Test new fill patterns. https://riccardoscalco.it/textures/ see example of utilisation here: https://observablehq.com/@oliviafvane/where-do-british-county-names-come-from http://www.heropatterns.com/ https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Element/feTurbulence https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Element#Filter_primitive_elements
  • map with stroke styles - patterns
  • map with hand written stuff: Test https://roughjs.com/
  • map with fill pattern (hashes?) indicating composition
  • map with bar rectangle (only height varies) to show variations in quantities.
  • map with time series for countries/regions: https://observablehq.com/@pjsier/chicago-covid-zip-sparklines
  • https://philogb.github.io/blog/assets/france/bertin.png

Add possibility to show shadowed effect for the countries AND buffered lines as on this image: https://previews.123rf.com/images/schwabenblitz/schwabenblitz1606/schwabenblitz160601040/58074061-map-of-denmark-with-the-provinces-south-denmark-is-highlighted-by-a-hatching-.jpg

Show temporal data using: https://github.com/tomshanley/d3-spiral-heatmap

As an alternative to pie charts, use other types of shapes do show decomposition (radial pie charts, squares (flag like), etc.). See some examples here, in some images at the bottom: https://observablehq.com/@tomshanley/cheysson-color-palettes

Make compositions possible?

  • compositions chroploth + prop circle
  • composition choropleth map showing variation (diverging colors) + rectangle/bar showing quantities +/-
