- necubi 12y agoThere's a special projection just for that: http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/4090848 http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/4090848. "The Albers USA projection is a composite projection of four Albers projections designed to display the forty-eight lower United States alongside Alaska and Hawaii. Although intended for choropleths, it scales the area of Alaska by a factor of 0.35x (a lie factor of 3); Hawaii is shown at the same scale as the lower forty-eight."
