Find geodesic distances

This example shows an implementation of Dijkstra's algorithm for finding distances in a graph, implemented as a D3 plugin.

Click an individual to start Dijkstra's algorithm with that node as the source. You can view individual names by hovering over nodes in the graph. When Dijkstra's algorithm completes, hover over a node to see its geodesic distance from the source individual.

Data from German School network example 1900.(see Heidler et al 2014 Social Networks)
