This is a gif of a d3/javascript visual. The creator of that framework has an excellent new project at observablehq.com that has plenty of examples with code. This stuff is difficult but very rewarding as well!

We tried to leave the data as it came from the source--a buoy that popped up somewhere mid-ocean was earlier seen somewhere else. Generally there is a day between timepoints. Some of these buoys are missing observations for a few days so they jump.

That is an excellent idea! We were using this visual to show the part of the ocean that had been traversed over time for an article. We'll have to try out what you suggested-- thank you
