The Independent: This is an astonishing visualisation of the refugee crisis
On 20 October, the number of refugees arriving in Greece in 2015 passed the half-million mark with a group of 8,000 people disembarking on the Aegean islands.
The scale of the refugee crisis can, at times, be difficult to fathom - but this visualisation may help.
The below visualisation by the Finnish site Lucify takes data from the UN's refugee Agency, the UNHCR.
While routes and travel times aren't accurate, the map does show accurate migration patterns for refugees between 2012 and 2015.
WNU Editor: That is a lot of migrants all heading in one direction.
