eurostat-map.js

Eurostatmap allows developers to quickly create and customise thematic web maps based on NUTS regions, showing Eurostat data directly retrieved from the Eurostat database, or custom data added manually.

Examples

You can build an interactive web map based on a few lines of code:

eurostatmap
    .map('ch')
    .title('Population density in Europe')
    .stat({ eurostatDatasetCode: 'demo_r_d3dens', unitText: 'people/km²' })
    .legend({ x: 500, y: 180, title: 'Density, people/km²' })
    .build()

• Population density (see the code)
• Population density map with dot pattern (see the code)
• Population map with proportional circles (see the code)
• GDP map with custom proportional symbols (see the code)
• Causes of death with proportional pie charts (see the code)
• Population change (see the code)
• NUTS typology as a categorical map (see the code)
• Focus on Spain (see the code)
• 20 years of GDP change in Europe (see the code)
• Unemployment/population relation (see the code)
• Farm sizes composition (see the code)
• Livestock composition (see the code)
• Sparklines: Population in Europe since 2012 (see the code)
• World map (see the code)

Installation

• Node.js: With npm install eurostatmap and then eurostatmap = require("eurostatmap").
• Standalone: For the latest version, use <script src="https://unpkg.com/eurostat-map"></script> as shown in the examples. For a fixed version, use <script src="https://unpkg.com/[email protected]"></script>, where X.Y.Z is a version number among these ones.

Technical details

Maps based on NUTS regions rely on Nuts2json API and TopoJSON format. Statistical data are accessed using Eurostat REST webservice for JSON-stat data. The data are decoded and queried using JSON-stat library. Maps are rendered as SVG maps using D3.js library.
