Description

We would like to request some enhancements to neo4j-gorm to support new data types

1. Java 8 date/time : Currently all dates are stored as long
2. Geospatial types i.e. Point

More information can be found here : https://neo4j.com/docs/developer-manual/current/drivers/cypher-values/

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks

Research direction

Start by reviewing the neo4j-gorm data type mapping and the Neo4j Cypher values documentation linked in the issue. Determine how Java 8 date/time values and Point values should be stored and retrieved, then verify support for both types with the project's relevant tests.
