Spatial
A Neo4j library for importing, storing, and querying spatial data with support for multiple geometry types and spatial indexes.
What is Spatial?
Neo4j Spatial is a library that adds spatial capabilities to the Neo4j graph database, enabling the storage, indexing, and querying of geographic data. It allows developers to perform spatial operations like searching for data within regions or distances, and import data from formats like Shapefiles and OpenStreetMap.
Developers and data engineers working with Neo4j who need to integrate geospatial data and queries into their graph-based applications, such as GIS professionals or those building location-aware services.
It provides a native, extensible way to handle spatial data within Neo4j, with support for multiple geometry types, coordinate systems, and integration with tools like GeoServer, avoiding the need for separate spatial databases.
Overview
Neo4j Spatial is a library of utilities for Neo4j that faciliates the enabling of spatial operations on data. In particular you can add spatial indexes to already located data, and perform spatial operations on the data like searching for data within specified regions or within a specified distance of a point of interest.
