Globe.gl is a JavaScript library for rendering interactive 3D data visualization layers on a globe using ThreeJS/WebGL. It wraps the three-globe plugin in a convenient web component, with optional React bindings.
Use cases
- visualize geographic data points on a 3d globe
- render airline routes or arcs on an interactive globe
- create a world population heatmap on a globe
- show satellite orbits in the browser
- display country polygons and choropleth data in 3d
- embed an interactive earth visualization in a web app
When to choose
- you need interactive 3D globe visualizations in a web browser
- you want a high-level wrapper around three-globe with sensible defaults
- you're building with React and want globe components via react-globe.gl
When to avoid
- you need flat 2D maps rather than spherical globes
- you need a full-featured GIS engine with projections and spatial analysis
- your project cannot include ThreeJS/WebGL dependencies
