I have always been curious about what its look like of this data? So this time I decided to use deck.gl to take a look. And this is the data visualization of taipei bus data.

I have no clue how to use deck.gl, so I follow the steps on Getting Started in its document.
After you successfully build and see the first example, you can dive in to other directories in examples/website
basically just npm install
and npm start
to see all of them. You will find out that deck.gl can do so much more. And this repository is humbly adapted from trips
.
I think the hard part is to think of what data do I wanted to visualize. Here are some place to get inspiration.
1. https://ptx.transportdata.tw/PTX/
2. https://data.taipei/#/
3. https://data.gov.tw/
4. Just google XXX open data
Check out the Getting Started in deck.gl. Do not forget to set the environment variable of mapbox token.
