GeoPlatform Search

The GeoPlatform Search plugin is used to browse, search, and access the portfolio of GeoPlatform assets (Datasets, Services, Layers, Maps, Galleries, Communities) by users throughout the GeoPlatform ecosystem. The plugin presents for users an application interface to the GeoPlatform search engine via the GeoPlatform Open API. Additionally, the plugin integrates searching for and accessing local content (pages, posts, documents) found on the site.

The plugin can be used to embed search bars into your pages and posts for searching the GeoPlatform portfolio. Just generate and include a shortcode found in the settings page to integrate a search bar anywhere.

With the GeoPlatform Search plugin installed, activation will create a new page on your site called “GeoPlatform Search.” This new page acts as a dedicated search application, with full-sized UI, providing full access to the entire portfolio of GeoPlatform assets.

Using the GeoPlatform Search plugin, you can browse the entire portfolio of GeoPlatform assets using a wide array of criteria (below) and standard search functionality such as paging and sorting:

• Free text search
• Keyword search
• Community association
• Asset Creator
• Geographic extent
• Points of contact
• Publishers
• Semantic concepts
• Temporal extent
• Themes
• Asset Types

The GeoPlatform Search plugin provides a simple administrative interface, supplying admin users the ability to regenerate the page should the need arise. It also provides a direct link to the search page.
