Map Pan & Zoom IV

This example uses d3.behavior.zoom with pre-projected geometry for map panning and zooming, in conjunction with dynamic simplification and viewport clipping. This approach is quite fast, but more work to implement than an SVG transform.

Is it possible to have the sphere.json ?

$ cat sphere.json

}
