D3.js is a JavaScript library for producing dynamic, interactive data visualizations in web browsers. It makes use of Scalable Vector Graphics, HTML5, and Cascading Style Sheets standards.
The geoTimes() function in d3.js is used to draw John Muir’s Times projection.
Syntax:
d3.geoTimes()
Parameters: This method does not accept any parameters.
Return Value: This method creates and returns John Muir’s Times projection from given JSON data.
Example 1: The following example draws the times projection of the world with the center at (0,0) and 0 rotation.

Output:
Times projection of World with no rotation and centered at (0,0)
Example 2: The following example draws the times projection of the world after altering the center and rotation.
