Brazil tops the charts; experts yawn.

In our visualizations we are showing the distribution of coffee all over the world.
We grouped the overall yearly production of coffee in each country and added a
slider to illustrate the yearly changes. Then we grouped the different countries into
continents. We are showing the different continents coffee production on a year-by-
year basis. Again the slider will illustrate the change in production over time. We
delineated continents by color and coffee production by size. The larger the dot on
the map signifies the amount of coffee produced. Unsurprisingly Brazil is the largest
coffee producer in the world.

Our next few steps will be to plot multiple years across the same map. We intend to do this by adjusting the colour tone of each bubble over each country. Colour transparency could represent quantity of coffee produced (with an adjoining chart showing exact amounts), shape could provide a year and actual colour blocks for each continents as we have done below.
