use cases:
bubble markers over time would be useful for things like surveillance, like the new incident cases of malaria per 100K population, over time. for incidence, it would look at a snapshot of the bubble markers at each timepoint
bubble markers over time would also work for cumulative cases of malaria, where instead of each timepoint being a separate snapshot, each timepoint would add to the magnitude of the bubbles in the previous snapshot
bubble plots of proportions would allow users to select a single marker of resistance and see what percentage parasites have that resistance marker over time
with WWARN we may want to see proportions of (the top 5? + other) resistance markers over time. consider a categorical color map with a lot more than 8 colors so that as new mutations develop and become predominant, they can be assigned a new color and replace one of the original mutations such that the markers only show 6 colors at any given time.

donut markers over time: https://flightaware.com/miserymap/
this one is not automated, but we could use a different color bubble marker for each value and animate it over time: https://www.carbonbrief.org/mapped-how-the-us-generates-electricity/

Feedback from Ann & Danielle:
Some thoughts:
This is a new feature to be added to the stand-alone full screen map (and also map viz tool in the EDA). We would like to be able to "play a movie" to animate how some variable changes over time for points on the map.
This will be needed for our collaborations with WWARN, and should be delivered (on a dev site) by July 2023.
