Geotag

This step adds Geotags to data and documents using a lookup feature. If you add Geotags you can then view information in our Map view along with using Geotag queries.

Geotagging requires you to set up a lookup index You can do this with the InsightMaker.GeotagIndexLoader. This utility takes a CSV file of labels to geopoints, for example:

Alton Towers,Alton Towers,52.988314371713900,-1.888653128086680

Thorpe Park,Thorpe Park,51.405088506269300,-0.512310674845334

Flamingo Land,Flamingo Land,54.205882291767900,-0.808004265764336

This example would use the Theme Park name as the lookup value, find the corresponding geopoint, and then write that to the selected field.

• Use either Entity or Data

  • Entity to use for lookup - The entity that contains the lookup value (i.e. Theme Park name)

  • Data model ID to use for lookup - As above but data model.

  • Data attribute to use for lookup

• Index that contains geopoint lookups - The name of the index that contains your lookups. This would be created by the InsightMaker.GeotagIndexLoader

• Use either Entity, Data or Metadata

  • Entity to store geopoint - Where to store the geopoint.

  • Data model ID to store geopoint

  • Data attribute to store geopoint

  • Metadata field to store geopoint - The default target is geoPoints (this is what is used by the map view by default).
