Adds a manifest.json output the plugin can fetch at runtime to
populate worldview / country / region-set / composite dropdowns
dynamically. Adding a new entry to the YAML configs no longer requires
a plugin code change — re-run build.sh, manifest updates, plugin
controls reflect the new options.
Manifest schema:
ne_pinned_tag, ne_pinned_sha, build_timestamp_utc
worldviews: [<wv>, ...]
admin_levels: [0, 1]
countries_by_worldview: {<wv>: [<adm0_a3>, ...]}
regional_aggregations: [{country, set_id, worldview, size_bytes}, ...]
composites: [{id, worldview, size_bytes}, ...]
Sample current output:
1 worldview (ukr), 211 countries with subdivisions, 4 regional sets,
1 composite (france_overseas). Build pinned to NE v5.1.2.
Follow-up commit will replace the hardcoded choice tables in
controlPanel.tsx with manifest-driven options.

transformProps tests cover the URL-derivation logic — the core piece
that maps form_data into the right build-pipeline output:
- Admin 0 + worldview → world choropleth URL
- Admin 1 + country → per-country file
- Region set + country → regional aggregation
- Composite overrides admin level + country
- Worldview defaults to 'ukr' when not specified
- Different worldviews reflected in URL
- Admin 1 without country → null URL (chart UI prompts)
- Pass-through of metricName/numberFormat/linearColorScheme
- Pass-through of query data + width/height
buildQuery tests cover that we're producing a valid chart/data
QueryContext with the expected shape (one query, form_data preserved,
orderby normalized as array).
These are the units most likely to break silently if someone refactors
the form_data → URL mapping or the query layer.

Replace the placeholder control panel with the real form-data surface.
New controls (none of which exist on the legacy plugin):
- worldview: SelectControl, defaults to 'ukr' per documented editorial
choice; configurable per-deployment + per-chart
- admin_level: SelectControl (Admin 0 / Admin 1 / Aggregated regions)
- country: SelectControl, visible only when admin_level !== 0 and no
composite is selected
- region_set: SelectControl, visible only when admin_level === 'aggregated';
choices depend on selected country (sourced from the regional_aggregations
YAML's snapshot table)
- composite: SelectControl (france_overseas etc.); when set, overrides
admin_level + country
- region_includes / region_excludes: free-form multi-select for client-side
filtering at render time (these drive the projection refit too — the
renderer's `filterFeatures` uses them)
- show_flying_islands: CheckboxControl, default true
- name_language: SelectControl with 20 NE-supported languages
The choice tables (WORLDVIEW_CHOICES, COUNTRY_CHOICES, REGION_SET_CHOICES_
BY_COUNTRY, COMPOSITE_CHOICES) are hardcoded snapshots for the POC.
Follow-up commit will replace these with options pulled from the build
pipeline's manifest.json so adding a new worldview or country only
requires a build script run, not a plugin code change.
Standard query controls (entity, metric, adhoc_filters, row_limit,
linear_color_scheme, number_format) preserved from the legacy plugin.

Replace the placeholder renderer with a real D3-based choropleth.
Modernizes the legacy plugin's rendering in three ways:
1. **Modern D3 modules** (d3-geo, d3-array, d3-color) instead of the
d3 v3 monolith. No more @ts-nocheck — fully typed.
2. **Built-in include/exclude filtering** (formData.region_includes /
region_excludes) before render. Projection auto-fits the FILTERED
feature set, so excluding Russia from a Europe view actually zooms
to Europe (the "fit to selection" behavior).
3. **Multi-language display names** via name_language formData field.
Falls back through name_<lang> → name → '' so any worldview/dataset
degrades gracefully.
Other changes:
- Tooltip is React state instead of D3-driven HTML (cleaner unmount,
no XSS surface from .html())
- Color scale uses sequential scheme registry from @superset-ui/core
(same path as legacy)
- Cleanup on unmount via useEffect cleanup function
Stubbed for follow-ups:
- Click-to-zoom (legacy had this; revisit after deprecation banner)
- Cross-filter integration
- Composite projection support (geoAlbersUsa for USA, etc.) — falls
back to plain Mercator + build-time repositioning for now
- Flying-islands toggle: feature-tagging in the build pipeline still
needs to land before the toggle can drop them at render time

Captures things the maintainer should manually verify before merge,
organized by category:
- Build pipeline (data correctness)
- Visual/cartographic quality (in-chart rendering)
- Controls UX
- Backward compatibility
- Per-deployment customization (config)
- Performance + ops
Items get added/checked off as the implementation progresses.
Includes specific spot-checks the agent can't validate alone:
Crimea-as-Ukrainian visual, Russia Chukchi connectedness, India
J&K under _ukr worldview, French composite layout, etc.

Mark Phase 1 substantially complete (5/5 transforms working,
220 outputs verified, all schemas in place) and Phase 2 partially
complete (modern plugin scaffold compiles end-to-end, real renderer +
controls still TODO).
Add a "Current PR state" section showing the build script's actual
output so reviewers reading the SIP can see at a glance what the POC
produces today.

Bootstrap the new @superset-ui/plugin-chart-country-map package with
the modern ChartPlugin pattern. Mirrors plugin-chart-handlebars'
structure (the leanest existing modern plugin in the repo).
Files:
package.json — workspace pkg with d3-* deps
tsconfig.json — extends frontend root tsconfig,
references core/chart-controls
types/external.d.ts — ambient types for png/jpg/geojson
README.md — what this plugin is + status
src/
index.ts — package entry
types.ts — CountryMapFormData + transform props
CountryMap.tsx — placeholder renderer (real D3 port
in a follow-up commit)
plugin/
index.ts — ChartPlugin class with metadata
buildQuery.ts — modern chart/data query (this is
the core difference from the legacy
plugin's explore_json path)
controlPanel.tsx — minimal placeholder; full control
set (worldview / admin level /
country / region include-exclude /
fly-islands / language) ports next
transformProps.ts — derives geoJsonUrl from form_data
using the build-script's output
naming convention
Renderer scaffold fetches the resolved GeoJSON URL and shows a small
diagnostic block (URL + feature count + data row count + metric name)
so the plugin compiles end-to-end and can be wired to the chart-type
registry without a real D3 render. Real renderer + controls land in
the next commits.

The monolithic ukr_admin1.geo.json (15MB / 4595 features) was a single
file that any chart would have to download in full just to render one
country's subdivisions. Replace with per-country files keyed by
adm0_a3, each individually simplified.
Also drops single-subdivision countries (useless as choropleths) at
this stage, mirroring the notebook's auto-purge.
Output stats from full run:
Files: 220 total
1 × admin0 (world) ............ 2.1 MB
4 × regional aggregations ..... 23-32 KB each
1 × composite (france_overseas) 322 KB
214 × per-country admin1 ........ 17 KB - 662 KB each (GBR largest)
Per-chart payload:
world choropleth → ukr_admin0.geo.json 2.1 MB
France departments → ukr_admin1_FRA.geo.json 308 KB
US states → ukr_admin1_USA.geo.json ~250 KB
Türkiye NUTS-1 → regional_TUR_nuts_1_ukr.geo.json 23 KB
France w/ overseas → composite_france_overseas_ukr.geo.json 322 KB
All well within usable browser payload range. The plugin will lazy-load
only what's needed for the current chart's worldview/admin-level/country.

Implements the fifth and final transform from the notebook audit.
A composite combines a base country's Admin 1 features with:
- base_repositions (with optional `group: true` for grouped transforms
like Paris + petite couronne treated as one body)
- additions (features pulled from sibling countries' Admin 1, with
optional dissolve, drop_parts, reposition, and attribute set)
Verified on France-with-Overseas:
france_overseas: 108 features → composite_france_overseas_ukr.geo.json
(322,058 bytes)
108 = 101 FRA admin1 departments + 7 additions (Polynésie française,
Terres australes et antarctiques françaises, Wallis-et-Futuna,
Nouvelle-Calédonie, Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon, Saint-Martin,
Saint-Barthélémy).
Bug fix during implementation: composites pull additions from Admin 1
of sibling countries (Windward Islands is a PYF Admin 1 subdivision,
not an Admin 0 country), not from Admin 0. Initial implementation got
this wrong and warned 0 features. Fixed by sourcing from base_admin1
(the global Admin 1 dataset, which contains all countries'
subdivisions).
New helpers:
- _drop_parts(geom, indices) — drop sub-polygon indices from MultiPolygon
- _translate_and_scale_with_pivot — explicit pivot (vs feature centroid),
used for `group: true` transforms
==== Build pipeline status ====
All 5 declarative transforms implemented and verified:
✓ name_overrides (19 updates per Admin 1 build)
✓ flying_islands (12 reposition + 5 bbox drop)
✓ territory_assignments (4 features added: TWN/HKG/MAC/ALD)
✓ regional_aggregations (4 region sets: TUR/FRA/ITA/PHL)
✓ composite_maps (1 composite: france_overseas)
Current outputs (UA worldview):
ukr_admin0.geo.json 2.1 MB 249 features
ukr_admin1.geo.json 15 MB 4595 features
regional_TUR_nuts_1_ukr.geo.json 23 KB 12 regions
regional_FRA_regions_ukr.geo.json 32 KB 18 regions
regional_ITA_regions_ukr.geo.json 32 KB 20 regions
regional_PHL_regions_ukr.geo.json 32 KB 17 regions
composite_france_overseas_ukr.geo.json 322 KB 108 features
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Implements the fourth transform: dissolve Admin 1 subdivisions into
coarser administrative regions. Supports two mapping styles:
- explicit_mapping: per-region {name, members: [iso_3166_2, ...]}
- grouping_field: dissolve by an existing NE field (e.g. region_cod)
Verified counts match notebook expectations exactly:
TUR/nuts_1: 81 subdivisions → 12 regions → 23 KB
FRA/regions: 101 subdivisions → 18 regions → 32 KB
ITA/regions: 110 subdivisions → 20 regions → 32 KB
PHL/regions: 118 subdivisions → 17 regions → 32 KB
Per-region-set output is its own file (`regional_<country>_<set>_
<worldview>.geo.json`) so the plugin can lazy-load only what's needed
for the current chart.
Implementation:
- Filter base geo to country features
- Tag each with derived `_region_code` and `_region_name` (via reverse
lookup of explicit_mapping, or via grouping_field value)
- mapshaper -dissolve handles the polygon merging in one pass
- Rename derived fields → standard `iso_3166_2` and `name` on output
Output sizes are tiny — each per-chart payload becomes ~30 KB instead
of pulling the full Admin 1 layer.

Implements the third transform: pull features from sibling Admin 0
records into a destination country's Admin 1 view. Used for:
- China + Taiwan/HK/Macau (NE keeps each as separate Admin 0)
- Finland + Åland (missing from FIN admin 1; NE keeps Åland as ALD
admin 0)
Verified on real data:
Building worldview=ukr admin_level=1
territory_assignments: added 4 features from sibling Admin 0 records
(4 = TWN/HKG/MAC + ALD; ARMM-renamed BARMM region picks up correctly
because name_overrides ran first.)
Two bugs fixed along the way:
1. **Property name casing.** NE Admin 0 ships with uppercase property
names (ADM0_A3, NAME_EN), Admin 1 with lowercase. All transforms
downstream assume lowercase, so we now normalize to lowercase at
shapefile-conversion time. Bonus: fixes a silent flying_islands
bug where `adm0_a3` filters never matched at Admin 0 because the
props were uppercase.
2. **drop_outside_bbox at Admin 0.** A country's multi-polygon often
includes overseas territories (Netherlands → Caribbean), so bbox
filtering at Admin 0 would drop entire countries. Now guarded to
only run at Admin 1 where each feature is a single subdivision.
3. **Åland's NE code.** NE uses ALD, not the ISO 3166-1 ALA. Updated
territory_assignments.yaml with comment noting the divergence.

Add mapshaper -simplify as a final-stage pass after the Python
transforms. Two-stage so the transforms operate on full-resolution
geometry (no risk of repositioning ghost features that got simplified
away) but the shipped output is browser-sized.
Default 5% with keep-shapes — preserves recognizable country shapes
while dropping the per-vertex bloat. keep-shapes prevents tiny features
(small island chains) from being collapsed away entirely.
Results on real outputs:
Admin 0: 23.6 MB → 2.1 MB (-91%, 249 features intact)
Admin 1: 67.7 MB → 15 MB (-78%, 4591 features, transforms preserved)
Per-feature simplify factors (the notebook had a size-based ladder)
can be added later if specific countries need tuning. 5% is the
mapshaper-recommended "good enough for web" default.
Open thought for future: split Admin 1 output by country
(`<worldview>_admin1_<adm0_a3>.geo.json`) so the per-chart payload is
~50KB-1MB instead of one 15MB global file. Will pair naturally with
the territory_assignments pass (which is per-country anyway).

Add Admin 1 build path and the second declarative transform. Exercises
the YAML config layer on real data:
Building worldview=ukr admin_level=1
loaded 4596 features
name_overrides: applied 19 field updates across 10 entries
flying_islands: repositioned 12 features, dropped 5 (outside-bbox)
wrote ukr_admin1.geo.json (67,677,079 bytes, 4591 features)
Counts verified against expectations:
- 19 name_overrides = 2 France typos + 6 France ISO codes
+ 5 PHL Caraga renames + 6 PHL BARMM renames
- 12 repositions = 2 USA + 1 NOR + 2 PRT + 2 ESP + 5 FRA
- 5 drops = NLD Caribbean + GBR overseas territories
New: pure-Python translate/scale geometry transform (no shapely dep);
operates on Polygon/MultiPolygon coordinates. Scale pivot is the bbox
center of each matched feature — good enough for the visual layout
purposes we use it for. Output bbox correctness verified by counts.
Refactor: extract `build_one(worldview, admin_level, ...)` so the
target matrix can grow in subsequent commits.
What's stubbed (TODO inline): territory_assignments, composite_maps,
regional_aggregations, simplification, procedural/. Output is
uncompressed and unsimplified (67MB) — simplification will land with
the mapshaper -simplify pass.

End-to-end working pipeline replacing the legacy notebook for one
worldview / admin level. Verified locally:
$ ./build.sh
Country Map build — pinned to NE v5.1.2 (f1890d9f)
Loaded 10 name override entries
Building worldview=ukr admin_level=0
Downloading NE ne_10m_admin_0_countries_ukr (worldview=ukr)…
mapshaper: ne_10m_admin_0_countries_ukr.shp → _raw_ukr_admin0.geo.json
loaded 249 features
name_overrides: applied 0 field updates across 10 entries
wrote .../output/ukr_admin0.geo.json (23,639,348 bytes)
Done.
What's wired:
- NE download from pinned tag (v5.1.2 / SHA f1890d9f) with cache
- Shapefile → GeoJSON via mapshaper CLI
- YAML config loading (currently just name_overrides)
- name_overrides transform with {match, set} semantics, including
the {in: [...]} list-membership matcher
- Output writes to scripts/output/ (gitignored)
- build.sh wrapper validates Python + Node + PyYAML are available
What's stubbed for future commits (TODO inline):
- Multiple worldviews (currently UA only)
- Admin 1 build (where name_overrides actually fire — currently no
features in Admin 0 match the FRA/PHL admin1 entries)
- flying_islands, territory_assignments, regional_aggregations,
composite_maps transforms
- Simplification (mapshaper -simplify)
- Procedural escape-hatch orchestration
- Manifest with NE SHA + build metadata
The 0 overrides applied is correct, not a bug: all current entries
target Admin 1 features.

The original draft was missing entries because notebook cell 63 was
truncated in the audit. Reading the full cell surfaced:
- Saint Martin (MAF) + Saint Barthélémy (BLM) as additional sister
Admin 0 territories (small Caribbean islands, scaled up significantly
for visibility — 5x and 8x respectively)
- Paris + petite couronne (Hauts-de-Seine, Seine-Saint-Denis,
Val-de-Marne) as a metropolitan zoom-in (group + translate + scale 3x)
- Per-territory metadata renames (Polynésie française, Nouvelle-
Calédonie, etc.) + ISO 3166-2 code assignments (FR-PF, FR-NC, etc.)
Schema additions:
- base_repositions[].group: true — when match yields multiple features,
transform them as a single MultiPolygon then split back out
(preserves per-feature attributes). Used for the Paris zoom-in.
- additions[].set: { name, iso_3166_2, ... } — override attributes on
the added/dissolved feature
SPM offset placeholder is gone; composite definition now matches the
notebook's output exactly (modulo the build script implementing the
declarative schema).

First-pass schemas for the build pipeline's declarative config layer.
Each schema is documented inline + populated with concrete entries
ported from the legacy notebook's audited touchups (those that the
obsolescence check determined still need to ship).

All five YAML files parse cleanly (validated with PyYAML).
Schema design choices:
- Every entry has a `description:` field. Forces honest documentation
of why each fix exists; reviewers can scan rationale at a glance.
- Match semantics: simple AND-of-conditions; supports `{ in: [...] }`
for value-set matching.
- composite_maps and territory_assignments share the "pull feature
from sibling Admin 0" primitive; build script can implement once.
- composite_maps.yaml has a TODO marker for SPM offsets — notebook
cell 63 was truncated in the audit; will backfill during build
script implementation.

Most touchups fit declarative YAML cleanly (typos, ISO codes,
repositions, dissolves, composites). A few don't — e.g., the
France-with-Overseas notebook drops a specific sub-polygon by index
to avoid visual conflict with Corsica.
Add a `procedural/` directory of small, named, single-purpose Python
scripts as an escape hatch. Build orchestrator runs YAML transforms
first, then iterates procedural/*.py in numeric order.
Why this is much better than the notebook for the same content:
- Each fix is a separate file → conflicts localize to one fix at a
time, not "the whole notebook touched the same cell"
- No kernel state, no output churn, pure functions on data
- Naming forces documentation; reviewers see add/remove at a glance
- Bounded growth: a 50-file procedural/ dir is annoying enough to
signal "push back into YAML or upstream"; the notebook had no
such signal and just bloated

Verified each notebook touchup against current Natural Earth Admin 1
data. Headline wins:
OBSOLETE (NE caught up or worldview handles it):
- Vietnam diacritics: NE has correct values in name_vi field; manual
rewrites collapse to zero by exposing name_language=vi
- Crimea/Sevastopol: handled by _ukr worldview (already confirmed)
- India Kashmir/Ladakh geometry: NE has UTs with correct ISO codes;
worldview selection adjusts northern boundary
- Russia Chukchi antimeridian: NE has split geometry into properly-
bounded polygons (x range [-180, 180]); D3 projection should handle
- Latvia third-party file: NE has 119 fine-grained admin1 features
- Philippines third-party file: NE has 118 admin1 features
- external_overrides.yaml DROPPED from the design
STILL NEEDED (NE still wrong / no upstream support):
- France typos (Seien-et-Marne, Haute-Rhin still in NE)
- France ISO codes (FR-75 → FR-75C, FR-GP → FR-971, etc. — 6 features)
- Philippines admin renames (Dinagat→Caraga, ARMM→BARMM, 11 features)
- China + SARs (Taiwan/HK/Macau still separate Admin 0 in NE)
- Finland + Åland (missing from FIN admin 1 in NE)
- Regional aggregations (Turkey NUTS-1, France/Italy/PHL regions)
- France-with-Overseas composite
- Flying-island repositions (USA, Norway, Portugal, Spain, France DOM)
Net: design surface shrinks, no third-party data dependencies in-tree,
config files stable enough that ongoing maintenance is small.
Two follow-up verifications still pending: Russia Chukchi renders
correctly under D3, India J&K geometry matches current Indian
boundary expectations under _ukr worldview.

Read all 96 cells of the legacy notebook; categorized every kind of
work it does into 14 buckets and mapped each to either:
- ✅ already covered by the proposed design
- 🟡 covered but requires a YAML config we'll need to port
- 🟠 needs a NEW config file or pipeline feature beyond what was sketched
- ⚪ might be obsolete in current NE — verify per case
Surfaced four NEW config-driven build features beyond the original
sketch:
- territory_assignments.yaml (China + SARs, Finland + Åland)
- regional_aggregations.yaml (Turkey NUTS-1, France/Italy/Philippines
regions; new "Aggregated regions" admin level)
- composite_maps.yaml (France-with-Overseas multi-country composite)
- external_overrides.yaml (India/Latvia/Philippines third-party
GeoJSON; verify whether still needed against current NE)
Plus extended flying_islands.yaml with drop|reposition action modes
to subsume the bounds-clipping pattern (Netherlands, UK).
Updated open questions, smoke-test fixtures (now 5 cases that
exercise the full surface), and Phase 1 of the implementation plan
with the obsolescence check + external-GeoJSON check as concrete
follow-ups.

Living document tracking the design for the Country Map rework. Will
be filed as a proper SIP issue when the POC matures; this file is
working scratch in the meantime.
Captured so far:
- Motivation: disputed-borders flashpoints, Jupyter notebook pain,
legacy explore_json endpoint
- Goals: configurable worldview, Admin 0 + Admin 1, per-deployment
+ per-chart customization, mapshaper-based reproducible build
pipeline, modern chart/data endpoint
- Spike findings: NE UA worldview vs Default — confirms Crimea-as-
Ukrainian + several other commonly-expected positions (Kosovo,
Western Sahara, Palestine, Cyprus, Kashmir)
- Deprecation plan: in-UI "switch to new Country Map" button + banner
on legacy, modeled on existing deprecated-chart pattern
Open questions tracked inline; implementation phases sketched.
