Author here, sorry about the spikes where people do not actually live. A lot of users put only their country and not city, and I didn't want to throw that data away.

I probably should've checked the specificity of the location and only thrown out the data for large countries like Russia and China, or distributed it across all other data points in the country.

Interesting project if you want to fork it!

Distributing it across should work well. Throwing out not so much because you're losing a varying big chunk of data.

It would be nice if there were an easy way to hit the population center instead of geographic center of a nation in webgl-globe, at least. That big spike in the middle of Siberia puzzled me at first.

This is the same spot in Google maps (pins), for example if you just type "Quebec" it's hits the same area hundreds of miles from the nearest town.

Take all the unknowns and spread them evenly among all the known cities.

This would falsely flatten the results.
