Choropleth map is a thematic map, in other words, a specially designed map not a general purpose one, which is designed to show measurement of statistical variable on the map using different color shades or patterns; or sometimes referred as geographic heat-map in simpler terms. We have already seen in the previous two recipes that geographic projection in D3 consists of a group of svg:path elements, therefore, they can be manipulated as any other svg elements including coloring. We will explore this feature in geo-projection and implement a Choropleth map in this recipe.
