Spring Data Neo4j Paradise Papers

Exploring the Paradise Papers with Spring Data Neo4j.

Note	To provide you an easy access to the data (no modifications and re-mappings needed), I decided to cut down or deactivate some functionality. Currently this application just allows you to browse the Top10 addresses in the database. More will come…​

How to get started

The data you will get from ICIJ does not contain any geo information. The application will try to resolve the address to a location when opening the details of an address.

1. Clone this repository.

2. Download the Neo4j Desktop matching your OS from https://offshoreleaks.icij.org/pages/database

3. Start the Neo4j Desktop (it might take a few seconds more on the first run).

4. Find out on what port Neo4j is available for bolt protocol communication. The best way to do this is to click the Manage option in the Offshore Leaks Graph tile on the desktop’s start screen.

5. Create a google api key with access to the geocode api. Read more here: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/start

6. Edit the file src/main/resources/application.properties accordingly.

7. Start the application with mvn spring-boot:run

But I want all the geo data

Oh great, you got an unlimited geocode api access. Checkout this blog post by William Lion: http://www.lyonwj.com/2017/11/28/geocoding-paradise-papers-neo4j-spatial-visualization/

Notes

Thanks to https://github.com/bahar/WorldCityLocations for providing a simple csv file with geo coordinates for a bunch of cities.
