The JavaScript D3.js library gives interactive data visualizations for web pages using HTML5, Scalable Vector Graphics, and Cascading Style Sheets. The geoEckert6() function in d3.js is used to draw the Eckert VI projection.
Syntax:
d3.geoEckert6()
Parameters: This method does not accept any parameters.
Returns: This method creates a Eckert6 projection from given JSON data.
Example 1: The following example creates Eckert6 projection of world with center at (0, 0) and no rotation.

.attr("d", d3.geoPath()
.projection(gfg)
)

Output:

Example 2: In the following example, we create Eckert6 projection of world with center at (0, 0) and rotating 30 degree clockwise with respect to Y axis.
