Inspiration

Based in the metropolitan transport network map from São Paulo (image below), i mapped all the stations, terminals, lines and connections utilizing the database Neo4j and the language openCypher.

Database structure

It was defined the following database model:

The nodes are:

BusTerminal - bus terminals. Example: São Bernardo;
Company - the company responsable by the transport line. Example: CPTM;
Line - the transport lines. Example: Yellow line;
MetroStation - the metro stations. Example: Paulista;
OrcaShuttleTerminal - Orca Shuttle terminals. Example: Jabaquara;
PointOfInterest - points of interest from the map. Example: Zoo;
TouristicTerminal - tourist terminal stations. Example: Paranapiacaba;
TrainStation - train stations. Example: Morumbi.

And the relationships are:

CONNECT - connection between stations and/or terminals;
HAS - relationship between Station/Terminal and the PointOfInterest;
INTEGRATION - integration between different types of stations and terminals;
OWN - relationship between the company and line, to represent that the company owns that line;
PART_OF - relationship between the station/terminal and line, to represent that the station/terminal is part of that line.

Required softwares

To run this project, it's necessary to install the Neo4j, you can download it here.

Examples

Create

Create a node

CREATE (:Line {name:'Emerald', number:9})

Create a relationship

MATCH (s1:TrainStation{name:'Poá'}),(s2:TrainStation{name:'Suzano'})
CREATE (s1)-[r:CONNECT{transport: 'train'}]->(s2)

Delete

Delete all database items

MATCH (n)-[r]-()
DELETE n,r

Queries

All database nodes

MATCH (n)
RETURN n

All stations/terminals from a line

MATCH (l:Line)-[:PART_OF]-(s)
RETURN l.name AS Line, collect(s.name) AS Stations

All stations with elevator

MATCH (s {hasElevator:true})
RETURN s

All station connections

MATCH ({name:'Luz'})-[:CONNECT]-(s)
Return s

All node connections of TouristicTerminal label

MATCH (s:TouristicTerminal)-[:CONNECT]-({name:'Luz'})
Return s

All lines from a company

MATCH (c:Company)-[:OWN]-(l:Line)
WITH c, l
ORDER BY l.number, l.name
WITH c, collect(CASE WHEN l.number IS NULL THEN l.name ELSE l.number + ' - ' + l.name END) as lines
RETURN c.name, lines
ORDER BY c.name

All relationship type sorted by alphabetical order

MATCH ()-[r]-()
WITH DISTINCT type(r) AS relationships
RETURN DISTINCT relationships
ORDER BY relationships

All nodes label sorted by alphabetical order

MATCH (n)
WITH DISTINCT labels(n) AS labels
UNWIND labels AS label
RETURN DISTINCT label
ORDER BY label

Quantity stations or terminals by line

MATCH (l:Line)-[:PART_OF]-(s)
WITH l, count(s) as qtd
RETURN l.name, qtd
ORDER BY l.name

Quantity of place with bike parking terminal or bike attaching post

MATCH (n)
WHERE n.hasBikeAttachingPost = true OR n.hasBikeParkingTerminal = true
RETURN n

All nodes that are in more than one line

MATCH (:Line)-[p:PART_OF]-(s)
WITH s, count(p) as qtd
WHERE qtd > 1
RETURN s.name, qtd
ORDER BY qtd DESC

Shortest path between stations, indepent of stations types

MATCH x = shortestPath((s1{name:"Grajaú"})-[:CONNECT*]-(s2{name:"Rio Grande da Serra"}))
RETURN EXTRACT(n IN NODES(x) | n.name) AS Directions

Shortest path between stations, only using train or metro

MATCH 
	(s1{name:"Grajaú"}), 
	(s2{name:"Rio Grande da Serra"}),
	p = shortestPath((s1)-[:CONNECT*]-(s2))
WHERE ALL (x IN RELATIONSHIPS(p) WHERE x.transport='train' OR x.transport='metro')
RETURN p
