Hi @G0rocks,
Please feel free to submit a PR. It should be relatively straightforward to add.

Hey Andrei-ng
Yeah, I thought the same so yesterday I started on it and now I have a fork (https://github.com/G0rocks/plotly.rs) and am working on it but I am not familiar with this codebase at all and am a little confused.

Do you have any tips for me?

I started out by copying everything Mapbox and renaming it to geo and then my plan was to change those things actually do the geo plotting but I'm a little lost.
Note I'm not an expert in programming or rust I just kind of dabble.

Thanks :)

Also writing here so I don't forget, this needs to go in the changelog somehow when it is ready

I'm stuck where I'm always getting the same projection and not sure how to change it. Any help would be well appreciated.

Hi, @G0rocks , I am currently traveling. I will have a look tomorrow at your fork when I am back

@G0rocks, you've started on the right path. Indeed, this specific type of traces need a new type of Layout options which are also not available in Plotly.rs. I think when you are talking about projections, you mean to be able to do something like this, right?

import plotly.express as px
df = px.data.gapminder().query("year == 2007")
fig = px.scatter_geo(df, locations="iso_alpha",
                     color="continent", # which column to use to set the color of markers
                     hover_name="country", # column added to hover information
                     size="pop", # size of markers
                     projection="natural earth")
fig.show()

https://plotly.com/python/scatter-plots-on-maps/

For that, I think I will need to add the Layout.geo API similar to Python, https://plotly.com/python/reference/layout/geo/

I can look into that at the end of the week, but if you want to have a go, you can try on your own until then.

I've just opened a Draft PR based on your work in your fork.
EDIT: @G0rocks can you change your fork such that you allow maintainers from plotly.rs to push to your fork?

Thanks @andrei-ng

I am talking about doing something like those but what I would most like to have is something like this one

https://plotly.com/javascript/lines-on-maps/

Though what I have now is good enough for my purposes

You can tell it's already helpful since I can see that I'm out of bounds :)

Thanks for opening a draft PR, I'll see if I can change it so maintainers from plotly.rs can push to the fork.
EDIT: I am in a little bit of a hurry and couldn't find it out quickly in the github docs so I just gave you collaboration access. Hope it's good enough for now!

Thanks for the examples. Now I understand what you are after. I will look into it, it is a matter of adding support for Layout.Geo.

I have access to your fork and can push changes now. Thank you!
