# CLAUDE.md
Development guidelines for the Mapbox Globe Visualization project.
## Running the Visualization
### Local Development Server
Start a local server from the project root:
```bash
# Python 3 (recommended)
python -m http.server 8000
# Python 2
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000
# Node.js
npx http-server -p 8000
# PHP
php -S localhost:8000
```
Open browser to: `http://localhost:8000`
### Mapbox Token Setup
**IMPORTANT**: Before running, replace the placeholder token in `src/index.js`:
```javascript
// Line 5 in src/index.js
mapboxgl.accessToken = 'YOUR_ACTUAL_MAPBOX_TOKEN';
```
Get a free token at: [https://account.mapbox.com/](https://account.mapbox.com/)
## Code Guidelines
### JavaScript Style
- **ES6+ syntax**: Use modern JavaScript features
- **Naming conventions**:
- camelCase for variables and functions
- PascalCase for classes
- UPPER_CASE for constants
- **Comments**: Explain "why" not "what"
- **Async patterns**: Use async/await where appropriate
### Mapbox-Specific Notes
#### Globe Projection
```javascript
// Always specify projection for globe view
const map = new mapboxgl.Map({
projection: 'globe', // Required for 3D globe
// ... other options
});
```
#### Coordinate Order
GeoJSON uses `[longitude, latitude]` order (NOT lat/lng):
```javascript
"coordinates": [139.6917, 35.6895] // Tokyo: [lng, lat]
```
#### Layer Management
```javascript
// Always check if source exists before adding layer
if (!map.getSource('my-source')) {
map.addSource('my-source', { /* ... */ });
}
// Remove layers before sources
if (map.getLayer('my-layer')) {
map.removeLayer('my-layer');
}
if (map.getSource('my-source')) {
map.removeSource('my-source');
}
```
#### Event Handling
```javascript
// Use 'load' event for initial setup
map.on('load', () => {
// Add sources and layers here
});
// Use 'style.load' for style-dependent features
map.on('style.load', () => {
// Configure fog, terrain, etc.
});
```
### Data Patterns
#### GeoJSON Structure
```javascript
const data = {
"type": "FeatureCollection",
"features": [
{
"type": "Feature",
"geometry": {
"type": "Point",
"coordinates": [lng, lat] // Note order!
},
"properties": {
// Custom properties here
}
}
]
};
```
#### Expression Syntax
```javascript
// Interpolation for continuous values
'circle-radius': [
'interpolate',
['linear'], // Interpolation type
['get', 'value'], // Property to interpolate
0, 5, // value: 0 -> radius: 5
100, 20 // value: 100 -> radius: 20
]
// Step function for discrete values
'circle-color': [
'step',
['get', 'category'],
'#blue', // default
'A', '#red', // category A
'B', '#green' // category B
]
```

```
## Common Tasks
### Adding New Data Points
Edit `src/data/population-data.js`:
```javascript
{
"type": "Feature",
"geometry": {
"type": "Point",
"coordinates": [lng, lat]
},
"properties": {
"city": "City Name",
"country": "Country",
"population": 1000000,
"year": 2024
}
}
```
### Modifying Visual Style
#### Change Circle Colors
Edit `src/index.js`, find `circle-color` property:
```javascript
'circle-color': [
'interpolate',
['linear'],
['get', 'population'],
1000000, '#new-color-1',
30000000, '#new-color-2'
]
```
#### Adjust Circle Sizes
Edit `src/index.js`, find `circle-radius` property:
```javascript
'circle-radius': [
'interpolate',
['linear'],
['get', 'population'],
1000000, 6, // Increase from 4
30000000, 30 // Increase from 24
]
```
#### Change Atmosphere
Edit `src/index.js`, find `map.setFog()`:
```javascript
map.setFog({
color: 'rgb(255, 255, 255)', // Lighter atmosphere
'high-color': 'rgb(100, 150, 255)', // Different sky color
'space-color': 'rgb(0, 0, 10)', // Darker space
'star-intensity': 0.8 // More visible stars
});
```
### Customizing Rotation
#### Adjust Speed
Edit `src/index.js`, find `startRotation()`:
```javascript
center.lng += 0.5; // Increase for faster rotation
```
#### Change Duration
```javascript
map.easeTo({
center: center,
duration: 1000, // Decrease for faster, increase for slower
easing: (t) => t
});
```
#### Disable Auto-Rotation
Comment out in `src/index.js`:
```javascript
// startRotation(); // Disable this line
```
## Performance Optimization
### For Large Datasets (500+ points)
```javascript
// Use clustering
map.addSource('population', {
type: 'geojson',
data: populationData,
cluster: true,
clusterMaxZoom: 14,
clusterRadius: 50
});
```
### For Mobile Devices
```javascript
// Reduce circle quality on mobile
const isMobile = window.innerWidth < 768;
'circle-radius': [
'interpolate',
['linear'],
['get', 'population'],
1000000, isMobile ? 3 : 4,
30000000, isMobile ? 18 : 24
]
```
## Debugging Tips
### Check Map Load Status
```javascript
console.log('Map loaded:', map.loaded());
console.log('Style loaded:', map.isStyleLoaded());
```
### Inspect Layers and Sources
```javascript
console.log('Layers:', map.getStyle().layers);
console.log('Sources:', Object.keys(map.getStyle().sources));
```
### Monitor Events
```javascript
map.on('error', (e) => console.error('Map error:', e));
map.on('dataloading', () => console.log('Data loading...'));
map.on('idle', () => console.log('Map idle'));
```

# Globe Visualization 1: Global Population Distribution
An interactive 3D globe visualization showcasing the world's major urban centers using Mapbox GL JS. This project demonstrates fundamental globe projection techniques, atmospheric effects, and data-driven styling.
## Web Source
This visualization is based on techniques learned from:
- **Primary Source**: [Mapbox Globe Example](https://docs.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/example/globe/)
- **API Documentation**: [Mapbox GL JS v3.0.1](https://docs.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/api/)
## Techniques Learned
### 1. Globe Projection Setup
- Initialized map with `projection: 'globe'` for 3D spherical view
- Used `satellite-streets-v12` style optimized for globe visualization
- Configured initial zoom and center for optimal viewing
### 2. Atmosphere & Fog Configuration
- Implemented `map.setFog({})` for realistic atmospheric effects
- Customized atmosphere colors: horizon, sky, and space
- Added subtle star field for enhanced visual appeal
### 3. Data-Driven Styling
- Used Mapbox expressions for dynamic circle sizing based on population
- Implemented color interpolation for visual hierarchy
- Applied stroke styling for better visibility
### 4. Interactivity
- Auto-rotation with user interaction detection
- Hover popups with detailed city information
- Pause rotation on zoom or user interaction
- Navigation and fullscreen controls
## How to Run
### Prerequisites
1. Get a free Mapbox access token at [https://account.mapbox.com/](https://account.mapbox.com/)
2. Replace the placeholder token in `src/index.js`:
```javascript
mapboxgl.accessToken = 'YOUR_ACTUAL_MAPBOX_TOKEN';
```
### Local Server

# Mapbox 3D Globe Visualization - Progressive Web-Enhanced Specification
## Core Challenge
Create progressively sophisticated Mapbox GL JS 3D globe visualizations that improve with each iteration by integrating knowledge from Mapbox documentation, tutorials, and examples. Each iteration should represent a measurable improvement in visual design, interactivity, data handling, or technical implementation using the globe projection feature.
## Output Requirements
**Directory Naming**: `mapbox_globe_[iteration_number]/`
**Content Structure**: Multi-file Mapbox application
```
mapbox_globe_[iteration_number]/
├── index.html # Main HTML with Mapbox GL JS setup
├── src/
│ ├── index.js # Core visualization logic
│ └── data/
│ └── data.js # Embedded GeoJSON or data
├── README.md # Documentation of iteration
└── CLAUDE.md # Project guidelines
