Automated d3 map of any country

February 19, 2013May 30, 2013 ~ Oscar Villarreal ~ 6 Comments

So I previously wrote a post on how to create a map of anywhere of the world using d3. I’ve decided to take that a step further and created a python script that automates the entire thing.
Follow the instructions in this github repo and you should be good.
Note: You will need to install GDAL and have Python running.

Enjoy!

Inspired in his challenge I’ve crated this one below
