Circle packing

Advanced Visualization

A circle packing chart renders hierarchical data in a group of nested circles. It has two fields:

  • Path: a list of strings. This represents the hierarchy (from highest to lowest level).

  • Value: a number that matches the size of the element at the lowest level. Sizes of non-leaf levels are equal to the sum of their children.

Examples

Basic circle packing chart

MATCH path=(:Company{name:'NeoDash'})-[:HAS_DEPARTMENT*]->(:Department)
WITH nodes(path) as no
WITH no, last(no) as leaf
WITH  [n IN no[..-1] | n.name] AS result, sum(leaf.employees) as val
RETURN result, val
