This animated bar nautical chart race shows the build value of the overstep global brands from the years 2000-2018. As the animation plays out each brand's bar on the nautical chart grows or shrinks to reverberate the brand's value. The bars likewise re-sort themselves automatically to demo the near valuable build at the overstep together with the to the lowest degree valuable build at the bottom. If a build falls out of the overstep twelve near valuable brands together with thence it falls off the bar graph.

As fantastic every bit John's visualization is I promise that at that topographic point is to a greater extent than to come. I'd dear a engagement command thence that I could manually navigate to thought the near populated cities inwards specific years. I'd likewise dear some historical commentary alongside the visualization to render some context or explanation every bit to why dissimilar cities rising or autumn inwards the visualization. For example, when the visualization starts inwards 1500 Vijayanagar is the instant near populous urban amount inwards the world. It together with thence of a precipitous drops off the nautical chart inwards 1565. According to Wikipedia "In 1565 ... the urban amount savage to a coalition of Muslim Sultanates.
