Basic Search
All data sources, files, social media, or DBs are searched unless you limit the target.
We use the term “CONTENT” to address all types. 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.
GeorgiaorGEORGIAis the same.if you 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 “-” → minus reverses any rule.
Use “~” if you are not sure about the spelling.
Date search → Just write the date or a date range. Because 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
noteornote owner:meYou 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.
...
Georgia -> Any content that contains Georgia
Geordia Aquarium -> Content with Georgia and Aquarium. These words must exist but not necessarily next to each other.
"Georgia Aquarium" -> Content with Georgia Aquarium. The words must exist next to each other(because of ")
Georg* -> Content with Georgia or George or ..
*City -> Content with smartcity or capacity or velocity (among the first 20)
-Georgia -> Content w/o Georgia
-*City -> Content w/o smartcity or capacity or velocity
Berlon~ -> Berlon~ finds Berlin, Terlon..
January 1st, 2020 -> finds all content with that date no matter how it is written. Jan 1, 2020, 1 Enero 2020, 01.01.2020 or other languages.
1-5 Jan 2020 -> Finds all content fall into this range. 4 jan 2020 for example.
note -> all notes I am allowed to see, you can take notes for all content types and you can open the main content by clicking the note.
note owner:me -> my notes
owner:me -> content added with drag and drop by me.
Search by Content Names&Types
The search rules are valid for names and the body of any content. If you want to limit the search to names, use doc: or content: prefix.
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 the search to a certain type.

Search by Dates
Write dates in a natural way. GEODI finds all dates, no matter how they are written.
GEODI automatically recognizes all dates and date ranges in the content and presents them in a CALENDAR view. If you install the language package, it can do for Russian, Arabic, Georgian, Hebrew and other languages as well. The calendar view will give you an idea about the temporal distribution of a query. Times when some news is concentrated, events like the orange blossom festival, will make it easier to perceive temporal events.
contentdate: prefix limits searches to contentdate(like, file date or tweet date),

Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow works as expected.
This Week, Last Week, Next Week : These queries are converted to dates from Monday to Sunday.

The Word Proximity Rule
"()" at the end of the rule affects maps, keywords, and graph pages. This operator is a great insight tool.
On the MAP page Accident() means show places near to word Accident.
“Accident() Insurance” means finding documents with Accident and Insurance but they should be close to each other.
when you use the operator in the keyword page, only related words remain. Places related to accidents or people related to accidents may be found this way.

GEODI also searches in databases or structured excel files. You can limit the search by field name. If more than one table in multiple databases contains the same field, the search includes all. So GEODI effectively merges all structured data along with unstructured ones. You can specify the table name for a specific table using ‘parent:’ GEODI collects field names by itself. Indexing and other phases are all auto, but you may use SQL to define how a DB and Tables will be indexed. PCs discovered by GDE and some other tools may also have a field name that can be searched in this way. |

The content summary contains the owner, who added the content by drag-and-drop. The owner: query results in the content added by the specified user.

Practical Examples
We suggest you to try the following samples with your content. You will see how easy and effective to find content in GEODI.
...
If you have a rought estimation about time interval then you may specify it in the search phrase. If you are sure that it was a PDF that no problem.
Jan-March 2017 doc:*.PDF Georgia
...
If the document came via email, the rule remains the same. We specify the PDF just as we specify the email, as both are content types for GEODI.
content:e-Mail Georgia
...
We know that it was in a ZIP file. The document name was something “Geological..” and contains the the word wall.
parent:*.ZIP doc:Geological* Wall
...
You looked at hundreds of resumes during an HR process and made notes indicating your opinions. Now you want to find the resumes that received positive notes.

When you want to search a word and sinonims at the same time you may simply define a GEODI dictionary. The following queries may be identical using a single line dictionary:

Using just words in long documents may be misleading. Lets assume , a 10 page document first word in the first page, second word is in the last page. To prevent this situation you may use proximity rule that is ().
Education() “High School”
find High School within 10 words of education. Try removing () and see the result.
Education “High School”
100..500GBP
Words can be found close to currency expressions that fit the range.
Save and Watch Queries
The current query may be saved using the search box menu. Saving enables to reuse of frequent queries and publishing them with other users.
If you watch a query every time, new content or a change happens GEODI will inform you through e-mail. This feature saves a lot of time. You may watch for certain words, but semantic features may be much more useful. Watching a query like “layer:SSN” whenever a document with social security comes you will be informed.
