Putting Dijkstra's algorithm on the map

In this example, a directed graph of selected cities in the US is superimposed on a map of the US. Click a city to run Dijkstra's algorithm from that city.

The data comes from Infoplease, although I manually picked which cities had direct connections, for the purposes of showing the algorithm. Map imagery is (c) Open Street Map and Mapbox.

This builds on my d3-mapzoom plugin, as well as my Dijkstra implementation.

d3.mapzoom = function() {
var center = [0,0]
var scale = 10000
var projection = undefined,
zoom = undefined,
tile = undefined
var layers = []
function map(svg) {
projection = d3.geo.mercator()
.center(center)
.scale(scale)
zoom = d3.behavior.zoom()
.translate(projection([0,0]))
.scale(projection.scale() * 2 * Math.PI)
.on("zoom", redraw)
zoom(svg)
}
function redraw() {
projection.scale(zoom.scale() / (2 * Math.PI));
var c = projection.center(), t = projection.invert(zoom.translate())
var i = c[0] - t[0]
var j = c[1] - t[1]
projection.center([i, j])
