Flow map drawing layer for deck.gl. Can be used for visualizing movement of people (e.g. migration) or objects between geographic locations. The layer is rendered in WebGL and can handle large numbers of flows with a relatively good rendering performance.
Try FlowmapBlue for an easy way of publishing flow maps (no programming skills required).
Run the LIVE EXAMPLE or check the source code of the following examples:
Building flowmap.gl locally from the source requires Node.js. We use yarn to manage the dependencies.
# Install dependencies
yarn
# Add your Mapbox token to .env (needed for background map)
cd examples/react-app
cp .env.example .env
# Start example app in dev mode
cd ../..
