That are one of the best data visualizations of our time. Especially the sister of The Atlas - The Globe globe.cid.harvard.edu is fun to use.

There it goes my evening:)

This reminds me of the once legendary 'State of the World Atlas'. How many dozens of hours spent google-eyed over those visualisations as a kid...

Very interesting visualisations. This will be very helpful for secondary research in the future.
