I have been using Neo4j Spatial and I've come across a few questions:
Limitations concerning layers and spatial operations: I understand that to process spatial data in Neo4j Spatial, we need to create a layer and store the data there. However, when executing operations, I'm wondering if it performs operations against all spatial objects in the layer, or if we can selectively operate on specific or a subset of objects. For instance, consider the following query:
WITH "POLYGON((15.3 60.2, 15.3 60.4, 15.7 60.4, 15.7 60.2, 15.3 60.2))" as polygon
CALL spatial.intersects('layer_roads',polygon) YIELD node RETURN node.name as name
In this case, does it perform operations against all objects in the 'layer_roads' layer, or can we operate only on certain objects that meet specific conditions?
Layer and Indexing: When a layer is created and data is added, is spatial indexing automatically generated for each addition, or is there a separate process required?
Practicality and efficiency issues: Practically using Neo4j Spatial, it seems time-consuming to perform operations with all spatial objects in a single layer. Therefore, I thought of storing spatial data as regular properties of Neo4j nodes or relationships and then, when needed, create a Spatial layer for the operations. However, if indexing needs to be recreated for each layer, this seems inefficient. How can this issue be addressed? Or is there a more efficient method?
I look forward to receiving feedback on these concerns and hope to use Neo4j Spatial more effectively. Thank you!
