For one of my (now retired) projects, I wanted to make use of a bunch of Instagram data, and so I scrapped them.
Amongst the scrapped data was all the cities in the world, along with the number of Instagram posts that ‘tagged’ that particular city.
I thought it would be cool to do a quick visualization of the data, and so I did.
Should you wish to play around with the extracted data or create your own visualization, I've made the tools and data available here.
