Queries allow you to find the necessary ones in the content.

GEODI queries may result as a list (CONTENT page), as a map(MAP page), or as a calendar (CALENDAR page). Whichever is best for you. Other modules may add new views to give more insight into your data—for example, NETWORK Graph Page by GEODI Discovery or Media Panel by MediaMon.

Basic Search Rules

  • Any word written is searched. Search is case-insensitive; that is, the upper or lower case does not matter. Like, Georgia, Georgia Aquarium.

  • if you have two or more words, you may use “ 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.

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

  • Date search → Just write the date or a date range, Because ıof 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” or “note owner: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.

Georgia -> Content with 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

-Georgia -> Content w/o Georgia

-*City -> Content w/o smartcity or capacity or velocity

Berlon~ -> Berlon~ finds Berlin, Terlon..

Geordia~ -> finds Georgia...

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 open the main content by clicking the note.

note owner:me -> my notes

owner:me -> content added with drag and drop by me.

 By Content Name&Type

content:*.PDF

doc:Training*

doc:geodinote (geodi note type)

doc:geodinote -possible (notes contains the word “possible”)

Note = doc:*.geodinote

Search rules also apply to content names. You should just add "doc:" at the beginning of the rule.

The keyword note is a shortcut for doc:*.geodinote.

 Search by Dates

23 April 1920 , October 1-30, 1923 ,

May-December 1923 , 04/23/1923

GEODI recognizes dates as they are written in the documents and allows you to search linearly.

GEODI automatically recognizes all dates and date ranges in content. If you install the language pack, it works for Russian, Arabic, Georgian, Hebrew, and many other languages.

The calendar view is built by recognized dates and is an important insight tool.

 Search by Relative Dates

yesterday , today

last week , last month , next year

Last decade , next month next decade

The creation dates of E-mail, social media messages or GEODI notes are reliable. GEODI allows you to query by relative date words.

 Word Proximity Rule

Accident()

Accident(10)

Accident() Driver()

*Accident() ,

Accident*()

Accident~()

Accident() Insurance

15 °C()

December 2021()

"()" 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.

You may specify word distance. You may use the rule with other rules.

“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.

 Versioning and Search

ver:last (last version)

ver:0 (old versions)

ver:<version> (a specific version)

ver:[prev | hasprev] (one older version)

GEODI versions all content by default. By default, a query finds all versions. But you may limit them by using ver: keyword.

GEODI just tracks the changes but does not save the old versions. If you want to access the old version, also you may activate “backup” per source.

 Find Similars

similar:(doc:a.pdf)

similar:”Georgia Aquarium" (finds similar document containig the words)

GEODI finds similar documents. Copies and similar are also shown in viewers.

You may use the following criteria for similarity search

  • maxcount:<n> - limit similar count by n.

  • minsimilarity:0.7 - set similarity. The default is 0.7.

  • excludeDuplicates:true exclude copies default =false means copies are listed under similar.

 Find Copies

duplicate (content with copies)

-duplicate (content w/o any copy. i.e unique ones)

duplicate:(doc:a.pdf) (finds copies of a.pdf)

duplicate:"Georgia Aquarium" (finds copy document containg the words)

It is said that typically %40 of documents in organizations are duplicates. Duplicates are confusing and make searches harder. GEODI finds and helps you eliminate them.

 Search by Source&Parent

source:<>

parent:Georgia* (files whose parent(ZIP or Folder..) has starts with Georgia)

parent:*.ZIP (files in ZIP files)

source:Archive parent:*.ZIP georgia (get files from Archive source, in ZIPs and containing word Georgia)

source:”Archive,HR” (2 sources)

source:”Archive\HR” (HR in Archive, Tree format)

child:”eligible”

You may limit the search results by content sources you have used in the project settings. You may also set rules for parent documents.

You may specify more than one source. If you set source names in a tree format, you should refer the same way.

parent: Search by parent content. ZIPs or folders may have other content under them. if you take a note, then it becomes a child of the content.

child: search by child content. e.g. search files whose note contains “eligible”.

 Search by Image

Drag and drop an image into the search box and find similar ones. You may use a machine part or a wallpaper sample.

(info) This feature must be activated in the project.

 Find by Recognizer

layer:Date

layer:”Name Recognizerı”

layer:”Date Hashtag”

You may limit the results by layer. Find content containing hashtags, dates, a city, a street, or a name. These semantic queries are also used in Classification.

 Find Geo Only

geom

geom means to find content containing a location. This location may have come from a lot of sources.

 Find by Content Language

lang:EN

lang:ES

If the language recognizer is included in the project, you may filter content by language.

 Search On DB Colums

fieldname:<criteria>

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.

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.

 Query by Content Creator

owner:<username>

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.

“me” may be used as a username for the current user. So if this query is used in a panel, every user sees content added by themselves.

Sort the Search Results

orderby:name

orderby:date

GEODI tries to bring the most relevant content first. But you may define different orders. Sort keywords behave differently in CONTENT and KEYWORDS pages. The following criteria are valid for keywords only.

orderby:layer

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

We are sure that it came through e-mail

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

Search for Georgia but not auarium.

Georgia -Aqua*

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:

Artifical Intelligence

AI

Expert System

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.
