<CdcMap />
is a React component for visualizing your data on a map of the United States. This was built for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's internal use and has been open sourced. There is support for filtering, toggling, numeric and categorical mapping as well as many other visual configuration options like color schemes.
It builds off the foundational work done on using D3 Geo and React by React Simple Maps.
This repository was created for use by CDC programs. Github is not hosted by the CDC, but is used by CDC and its partners to share information and collaborate on software.
The following are examples to show various examples of CDC Maps in action:
npm install cdc-map
1 . Import the component at the top of your file.
import CdcMap from 'cdc-map'
import 'cdc-map/build/static/css/index.css'
2 . Use the component freely in your React application.
import React from 'react';
import CdcMap from 'cdc-map'
import 'cdc-map/build/static/css/index.css'
function App() {
return (
<div className="App">
<CdcMap />
</div>
);
}
export default App;
The component supports two different methods of loading a configuration. You can pass it directly as an object or via an external JSON configuration url.
- Loading an object using the
config
parameter.
const configObj = {...}
<CdcMap config={configObj} />
- Loading an external URL using the
configUrl
parameter.
<CdcMap configUrl="http://example.com/configuration.json" />
The actual data that you are mapping needs to be formatted in a specific way where there is one column for each row that represents the state or city for the rest of the data on that row. There needs to be an additional column that represents the data you are trying to display on the map. This can be categorical or numerical data. You will specifically map these columns in the editor.
The supported formats are CSV and JSON files.
Reference the /example-data/
folder for examples of both.
For more information, read the CDC's official guidance on how to use the map tool.
While it is possible to hand edit values in the configuration object, it is easier to use the editor which will help you quickly build the map you want to display. To enable it in your project simply pass it as a property to the component with no configuration:
<CdcMap editor={true} />
This will load the map with its default configuration file (located in /src/json/default.json
) and the editor pane open. Once you have configured the map as you wanted, click "Create Configuration Object" and you will get a string of JSON you can use for that map.
- Avoid restricting the width below 675px on fullsize screens. CDC Maps was originally designed to utilize full viewport width and be embedded in an iframe. It's responsive but the viewport width of the page must be below a certain size for that to take effect. Including the component at smaller widths than 675px can lead to unforseen rendering issues.
- Do not use this component where a parent element has
position: relative
set. The tooltips are positioned absolutely relative to the viewport they're in. If you're including the component inside an element whereposition: relative
is set they will be relative to that container element, causing the tooltips to be offset.
