Protocol Actions
  1. Load Data:
    A comprehensive database of the world's nuclear power plants is loaded, containing coordinates, status (Operational, Shutdown, Construction), and capacity.
  2. Data Aggregation:
    Individual reactor units are aggregated by plant site where necessary to determine the total capacity and operational status of each location.
  3. HTML Generation:
    Instead of a standard Plotly figure, a custom HTML template is used. The processed plant data is injected directly into a JavaScript variable within the template.
  4. Visualization Layout:
    The final visualization renders an interactive map where each point represents a power plant. The points are styled dynamically via CSS/JS based on injected status status codes.
