Neo4j is an open source, versatile graph database solution that can be applied in many different situations. With all of the data piling up at companies across the globe, being able to identify relationships and dependencies among that data will be critical going forward.

I agree with battlezone77, I want to do the Panama Papers together with FME.

Or did SAFE parked some money there, too?


Totally want something like this. Graph DB are perfect for capturing the information but there are no, that I know of, interfaces as wonderful as Airtable. With Airtable I can add elements and rows without a prior schema. The main downside is a rather verbose way of representing two-way relationships.


I know one partner did some work with this database and had written their own plugin. Very very powerful. We will consider. I think StarDog http://www.stardog.com/ is also worth considering too.


The latest version of Neo4j supports having 2d and 3d points for geometry. https://neo4j.com/docs/cypher-manual/current/values-and-types/spatial/

I would like to see Safe considering adding native Reader/Writer support for this DB is now spatially aware and even has some built-in spatial functions like other spatial aware DB like PostGIS and Oracle.

 

I use FME for almost anything I do spatially and Graph DBs are continued growing segment of data visualization. I'm having more requests to use ETL (FME) I'm currently writing my own HTTP calls through Neo4j API, but would like official FME Reader/Writer support functions.


OpenReleased

Awesome!!! I am checking the change log, and the reader is implemented, but not the writer?
