Basic Search Rules

  • Any word written is searchedAll data sources, files, social media, or DBs are searched unless you limit the target. We use CONTENT to address al. Content is a file, tweet, or row in a database.

  • You may search for any word(s). Search is case-insensitive; that is, the upper or lower case does not matter. Like, Georgia, Georgia Aquarium Georgia or GEORGIA is the same.

  • if you have two or more words, you may use want to search words with next to each other, put an “ around to search for an exact phrase.

  • You may use “*” at the beginning or end of a word for an unknown part.

  • Use “-” if you want the opposite→ minus means do not include.

  • Use “~” if you are not sure about the spelling.

  • Date search → Just write the date or a date range, . Because ıof of semantic search abilities, GEODI finds all content no matter how the date is written.

  • Note search → To search your own or others' notes, just use “note” note or “note note owner:me” me

  • You may use any rules together.

  • There are more rules to use. Some are available in the facet area on the left to add more criteria about content types, sources, and recognizers.

The name means may vary depending on the content type. The name is what you see in the GEODI search result.

GEODI displays content types on the facet. You may always use the types to limit search to a certain type.
