How do we teach to GEODI? | As we all know, GEODI discovers valuable information in content. GEODI discovery capabilities are largely driven by AI and rules. The accuracy of the discovery increases as the examples increase. When GEODI finds something wrong, we need a way to tell it right. · That's what the 'learn process' is for. It's our way of showing GEODI that it has found something wrong and showing it the right way to do it. |
Can the uninstall or deactivation of agents be prevented? | Yes, by default, Office plugins cannot be removed or deactivated by the Windows user. |
GEODI Installation Requirements | GEODI is a web application accessed via browsers like Chrome, Firefox, or Edge, running on your servers with specific hardware and software requirements, including Windows 8+, .NET Framework 4.0, and optional CUDA-supported NVIDIA GPU for advanced features. It requires an SSL-certified address, port 3323 open, and user credentials for data sources. GEODI supports various data adapters and recognizers for compliance and data discovery. Agents like GEODI Desktop Explorer (GDE) and GEODI Classifier may be needed, managed through tools like ManageEngine or SCCM. |
GEODI Discovery | GEODI Discovery enables discovery for many different sectors and purposes. The intelligent recognizers that come with Discovery provide the robust infrastructure needed for GEODI Discovery automatic classification.ReportsThere are more reports with GEODI Discovery. The system admins and members of group can access the reports. The reports are visible in the workspaces only if settings exist in the GenericSettings in Workspace Advanced settings.Report: Discovery-Content FindingsEach row in the Content findings report is a discovery type. This report is much simpler than the content summaries report and can be useful to determine conforming and nonconforming sources. Report: Discovery-DestroyGEODI uses reporting infrastructure to generate remediation scripts. Destroy script is one of them. There is no undo for Destroy. Please use it with care. Due to internet browser security measures scripts are generated in *.bat.txt extension. Please rename it to *bat, before use. We suggest, the scripts must best be used on the same machine as the GEODI server installed due to access rights and paths and other issues. The generated script is in Windows Batch language. You may change it to work in bash, python, or any other language. Report: Discovery-QuarantineLike destroy, quarantine is also a script. The script effectively moves the content to a determined place. There is no undo for Quarantine. Please use it with care. Please make sure the Quarantine place has enough storage size. Other terms are the same as Destroy. Report: Discovery-EncryptionThe encryption script generates encrypted files in the same place. You may run Destroy to destroy the originals. You may use different passwords in multiple scripts. Please keep the password in a secure place. You will need Winrar. Report: Discovery-Batch-Masking This report requires a Masking license. Batch masking is a GEODI DCC file to mask selected files. DCC can be run on GEODI Server. Masking covers local and network sources. The script requires the following parameters. Token → A token with a user that has masking permission. Obtain a token from /API. MaskDataMetaID, is the profile ID of the masking pattern. You can find the IDs of the profiles that come with masking on the https://decesw.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/geodien/pages/3977642003/Module+GEODI+Data+Masking page.eA place to store masked files. Make sure there is enough storage in the place. Report:Discovery- Content Findings(DB)This report tells about which table/column contains sensitive data. It works only for DB content. For unstructured data, please use the Content Findings report.PanelsA variety of ready-made panels come with GEODI Discovery. The appearance of the panels depends on the permissions.The system admins and members of group can access the panels. The panels are visible in the workspaces only if settings exist in the GenericSettings in Workspace Advanced settings.Discovery PanelThis panel is very brief on all findings. For this panel, you can refer to the GEODI 131 tutorial. PCI/DSS PanelA PCI/DSS version of the Discovery panel comes with PCI/DSS module. Client PanelThis panel is to monitor GDE ve Classifier agents. Please check the following page for the details. This panel Clients Paneli is visible only to System Admins. GEODI Agent Management Panel |
Source Folder | This source connects local folders or network shares for indexing/discovery. When sharing is not preferred or possible, you may use the GDE agent (for Windows, MacOS, or Linux clients) to index. Please refer to Source:File Server When there are many computers to discover, you may use the GDE agent (Windows, MacOS, or Linux clients). Please refer to Source:PC'sStart with the folder source in the project wizard. The options (OCR, FacePro …) may differ depending on your license. GEODI, by default, will index/discover all files in the folder and subfolders unless the types are not in the ignore list. Some file types (EXE, DLL ..) and some folders (Program Files …) are ignored by default. Ignore definitions can be changed. Sampled discovery is possible.Requirements for connectionFor GEODI Windows Service, a service user is required.You should provide credentials(user name/password) to access for each folder/share in case service user do not have any access to them. Decision to crawl all or sampled subset. Scope of discovery decision Indexing & Content TypesContentAll file typeWordke word, excel, PDF, text, jpeg, tiff, video …File Databases like SQLite, Access...Compressed files and their content (ZIP, RAR, 7ZIP..)Only the name is indexed for unrecognized file types. Only the name is indexed for password-protected or corrupted files (! appended the name)*.xDeceConnection files, Connection files for any database created by GEODINew or changed content may be periodically or manually indexedWhen exhaustive indexing is not required, sampling is possible PermisionsThe GEODI Service user must have at least read-only access to the folder tree. GEODI users' permissions may be defined per source, or if you enable LDAP, LDAP permissions per user is preserved for G” action to synchronize. Folders and Files to IgnoreBy default, GEODI excludes some file types from indexing (such as EXE, DLL, and system files). You can expand or collapse these definitions.The definitions in the Settings/IgnoreFileTypes directory under AppData or app will be used. There can be multiple files. In this way, you can also turn the settings into modules. Example files are as follows.This setting applies regardless of the file source. |
Creating a Glossary | Creating a Glossary: Dictionaries can be created in several different ways. You can create a dictionary yourself without any tools. Synonyms should be written in a single column and separated by commas. It is also possible to import information from different formats (CSV, KML, etc.) into this dictionary. You can also use your existing data in CSV or Shape format directly as a dictionary using the 'From File' option. There is also a 'Database' option in the GEODI dictionary creation interface. With this option, a connection can be established with shp, csv, excel, kml and access files or MySql, Oracle, SqLite, Postrgre databases. As long as this connection is not interrupted, GEODI will periodically read the updated data and keep the dictionary up to date.MOBIDI can create a dictionary from a database but it is not bound. It reads the records once and creates the dictionary. You can match the fields needed for the dictionary with the fields in the data source. |

GEODI Classifier - Class and Policy settings | GEODI Classifier is a set of tools for manual and automatic classification. This page is about configuring central management of the tools. Classifier Module ConfigurationUse “Activate Classification Tools” on the last page of Project Wizard to open the management dialog. The classes, rules, header, footer, and watermark grans are all set here. There are ready project templates; we suggest you start with one to have ready-to-use settings. As a best practice, create a separate project for classification other than search and/or discovery. The project for classification does not need to have data. ClassesIn this tab, we will define the class labels, their rules, and their appearance in plugins (Microsoft Office, others). Classes should be created with the most important at the top. ID: You must give a unique value for the class.Name: The text of the class that you want to appear in the interfaces.Category: You can create a classification tree by giving different categories. It is useful if you have many classes. By default, it can be empty.Description: With the description, you write down what you need to know about the class. This text will be a guideline for the users of the plugins. Descriptions will be displayed in the classification interface of the users.Query: Documents that match the query automatically take the corresponding class. GEODI Query Rules are valid. There are predefined queries (, ,...) to help you use the same queries in classes, panels, and other places. This is a good way to simplify configuration and management: Tags: Tags are the key and value pairs to write In MS Word, PDF, or ADS files. If you plan to switch to GEODI from another classification solution, GEODI adapts the existing schema. The transition will be seamless. Please check GEODI Classifier Label/Tag DefinitionsHeader, Footer, and Watermark values are valid only for MS Office software. If the user chooses this class, the text will be embedded into the document. You may use %User% to have a user name in the values. You can use \n to move to the next line for multiple lines of text. For example, “Personally\nIdentifialbe\nInformation ”. Auto classification chooses the last class if the content does not match any other query. BehaviourDefault Classification rules are set here. These rules are automatically updated for all clients in about 10+ minutes. You may override/change rules by user, group, IP, or classification tools using the “Customize” tab. Auto Classify Behaviour: Determines how auto-classification works. Use as a suggestion → The user may or may not use auto. Disabled → Automatic classification is offDo not select the class under auto → Users cannot choose classes lower than the auto. Ask Classes on Save: MS Office add-ins open a dialog to choose classes when saving/close or printing. This option determines when the dialog opens. Show when necessary → If auto-classification is possible or the document already has a class, the dialog does not open. Always → The dialog opens after each change. Never - Manuel Only → User can open the dialog manually. Use OS Meta: Enables ADS for documents other than Microsoft Office and PDF. ADS labels are created only by Shell/Desktop Classifier. Allow Class Lowering: Determines if a user can choose a lesser class for an already classified document. This is an important setting and you may override it by user, group, or IP. Classifying internal emails: When checked, same domain mails are to classified. Log Format: By default, all classification activities are logged. Here you choose log format and medium. CustomizeWith customization, the default rules can be changed based on User, Group, IP, or the application.For example, you can limit some groups to only auto-classification and allow some other class-lowering.Each rule is a customization and you can add as many as you want. If rules overlap then the first rule is valid.Active: You can use customization on/off for end users.Name and Description: If you have a lot of customizations, we recommend that you write a systematic naming and description for ease of management.Users: The person and group information that will be affected by the customization is written here. More than one person/group can be selected.Macro: You can create advanced options with a macro. It is possible to create IP or, time-based rules.Macro Examples The IP address to which the customization will be valid can be selected by typing. Allows the use of customization between certain hours.You can access the objects that can be used via the link. https://service.decesoftware.com/apiApplications: The applications that will be affected by the customization are selected. More than one can be selected. If none is selected, the customization applies to all applications.Auto Classify Behaviour, Ask Classes on Save, OS Meta , Classifying internal emails , Allow Class Lowering : Choose the settings you want to customize/override.Disable Classification: You can disable classification for selected users, groups, or IPs. Available Classes: You may want some classes to be offered only by certain groups or departments. In this case, you can specify which classes are available for each customization.Pop-Up Texts SettingsUse the terminology by your preferences. Auto Button Text : This is the name of the automatic button in the classification interface.Category: It adds a general title to the left side of the upper category classes in the open pop-up interface.Subcategory: It is used to add titles to the left side of Subcategory classes in the open pop-up interface. If the category name in the class definitions is to be used as the title, 'Use Class Category' must be checked. These fields should be left blank if the categorical structure is not used.Form Title: The dialog's title that opens during saving/printing for MS Office can be changed.Description: Description can be added/changed to the dialog opened during saving/printing for MS Office.Class Not Selected Message: Message displayed on the dialog opened during saving/closing/printing for MS Office if the class is not selected for the document.OK Button: The text of the OK button on the dialog opened during saving/closing/printing for MS Office can be changed.Unknown Class Text : The class indicating that the document that will appear in unclassified documents is unclassified.Top Bg, Text Color, Bottom Color: It changes the color combinations on the pop-up window in the GEODI Classifier Add-In screen. It works in our default colors when it receives an incorrect or missing value.Class Not Defined Icon: The icon of the class indicating that the document to appear in unclassified documents is unclassified.SetupThe software automatically generates the token and MSI parameters required for installation. Please refer to the client pages and OWA installation page for details. |
Content Viewers | GEODI can display a large amount of content directly without the need for other software. A word document is used here as an example. There are different viewers for DWG, NCZ, Videos, E-mails, and other content. Here we will describe the common features of all of them. 1.You can view your document in the content viewer, scroll up/down with the mouse wheel. ctrl mouse movement enlarges the document. You can take notes anywhere with the right mouse button. 2.You can enter many contents in your search criteria. When you open one of them, you can open them one by one without going back. 3.In the panel on the right side you can see the words/metadata, notes, copies and versions of the content. Different types of content may have different attachments. To download any older version, you may use shift+download. The backup options must be on in the source. 4.In this area, options such as downloading if you have authorization, masking if you have a masking license are listed. 5. You can search within the open document. |
How do we mark errored ones? | Find the erroneous finding on the words page.
Select the 'Learn' operation from the 3-point menu.
In the form that opens, give the necessary information.
That's all!
GEODI will need many more examples to learn. It needs some help from our teams for this work. And probably in a few days your corrections will be active for the new content. If you want old content to change as well, you may need to crawl or scan what has changed. Our technical teams will help. |
Module GeoArchive | https://www.dece.com.tr/geodi-moduller#geo-archiveGeoArchive module recognizes Sheet Numbers, Coordinate Tables, Coordinate Values and file boundaries in Structural and Non-Structural data. Thanks to these capabilities, your archive gains geographic quality, and the work that you may need to do manually with a GIS software becomes fully automated. It is enough to add the recognizers that come with the GeoArchive module to your project. Please refer to the project wizard help pages for recognizer settings.GeoArchive can also work with Parcel Recognizer and or Mileage Recognizer, which are also licensed. In this way, plans, expropriation maps, road projects, intersection projects created with AutoCAD, Microstation or Netcad are automatically associated with GIS without any pre-processing. Geographic Border RecognizerGeographic Border Recognizer automatically recognizes borders from geographic information contained in existing CAD, GIS and Spatial Databases. With these borders, you automatically see plans, plan revisions, any project sheets created and the areas they cover. The rest is solved with GEODI's capabilities. Your map will change according to your search criteria. The same recognizer additionally recognizes Turkey Standard Sheet Numbers. The default scale is 1/5000 and larger. You can change it if you wish. External Metadata must be defined for DWG, DXF and DGN Files. Supported File Formats The same metadata file can be defined for NCZ and DRE files when not available. PRJ (Projection) file must be available for shape files. If not, the same metadata file can be used. TrainingsFor GEODI UsersCAD&GIS User Training must have been receivedWhat is the GeoArchive?

What is a Network Graph? | A network graph consists of nodes and lines connecting those nodes. You can think of it like a road network. In the GEODI network graph, the nodes represent words (i.e., the discoveries made) or documents, and the lines represent the relationships between them. The network graph is part of the GEODI Discovery package. |
GEODI Project Wizard | A GEODI Project or Workspace brings data sources, discovery rules, permissions, and other policies. New Project: With 'New Project' you are asked to choose from a template. Starting with pre-built templates for classification and data discovery will make the process easier.You may find new templates in DECE-STORE. Manager/Settings/Module Manager allows you to add new modules. DECE-STORE has hundreds of modules about PCI/DSS, GDPR, HIPAA, country-specific recognizes, and other utilities. Data Sources: The next step is to define content sources. Here options such as folders, web pages, e-mail accounts are offered. Options may change according to the application modules. You can define as many sources as you wish. The names will be visible to other users. We recommend you to choose carefully. The source list may change by the license. Check 'Use Scheduled Scan' option to automatically include new data. If not, you may set a single period for all sources at the last page. Check 'Enable drag&drop' to enable users add their content though browser.Recognizers and Dictionaries are GEODI's information extraction tools. The Date Recognizer reads and parses dates from content and the Parcel Recognizer reads and parses parcel numbers from content. Recognizers may vary according to your license. With Dictionaries you can define synonyms.GEODI Maps allow detailed project settings such as OCR and Backup configurations, with automatic content updates and customizable scanning intervals. Access restrictions and user permissions can be managed post-setup. GEODI Classification activation and agent deployment are crucial, ensuring efficient data indexing and management. Initial scans may vary in duration based on data size, optimizing subsequent scans for efficiency. |
DB Meta Definitions | GEODI, by default, indexes all or selected tables in a database with some default behavior. DBMetas are the optional definitions to change this behavior. To index embedded or linked files, index SQL, or change the indexed rows' view, you need to define a DBmeta. DBmeta files are *.jsettings and should be in the 'Settings' directory. You may limit the settings by criteria such as WorkspaceName, which specifies WorkSpaces to which the settings will apply; TableFilter, which specifies tables to which the settings will apply; and ColumnFilter, which specifies tables that contain the given columns (if '-' is given, tables that do not contain the relevant columns are considered). If more than one criterion is given, the relationship is AND.row is a document/content. GEODI treats rows like other documents. By default, the first text column is the name. You can change row names for each table using DisplayNameMacro and other columns in the macro. GEODI can scan files with file paths in the database or embedded as blobs. This document explains how to make the necessary settings. You can use it in Access, Postgres, Mssql, Oracle, Sqlite, MySql databases.To index multiple embedded files in a table, you can use a meta to index files embedded in multiple columns in the same table. When there is no file name in the table in the database, you can build one using the value. Some examples assume some rows may not have an extension value, with a default assumption such as PDF if no extension is provided. You can also index files specified by file links in a record, though CSV files are not supported. You can use macros to calculate the full paths for the files, making these files children of the rows. Each table requires a primary column for scanning and versioning changes. GEODI sets the ObjectID value by default, but you can specify a different column with the appropriate definition. You can create a new table named NewName with the SQL key. The SQL statement must be compatible with the relevant DBMS. Standard SQL must be used, ensuring no repeating columns with the same name in the result. You can authorize based on Table, SQL, or View row. Use user and/or GEODI groups in PermitMacro and DenyMacro for authorization. You can also use [geodi:username] for users created. Rows will be authorized in the table, and these authorizations will be used in files (child content).This feature changes the GEODI search index. When the nomenclature given in the context is searched through GEODI, it finds all the contents in the table. You can write and name more than one [Column Name] in Content, which allows turning words without a column name into a search word. The HTML template you provide with the 'TemplateName' key will determine the appearance of the records that meet the criteria. Using TemplateName gives you visual flexibility but can affect performance.default search covers all tables and all columns. To limit the search result based on columns, set FieldIndex. EnableAutoFieldIndex in the project detail settings must be true, and the project should be rescanned. By default, GEODI discovers all database contents. You can optionally sample and explore your database contents, saving on scanning time and storage space. Sampling settings will be effective for file-based databases. To make column names multilingual and define aliases, use the following definitions. Include 'fields' in resx file names located in the globalization directory. The value contains alternative column names (alias) separated by '|'. You can write macros for values such as Document ID and File path. Macros allow solving situations where column values are insufficient. Macro text includes columns between '[]'. Some characters must be escaped with '\'. If DBMeta does not work, validate jsettings files syntax, check column, table, and GEODI project names for correctness, and examine scan error logs via the developer report. |

GEODI Setup as an IIS Service | GEODI can run without the need for IIS. However, if you need IIS capabilities, you can also install GEODI as an IIS service. Basic knowledge of IIS is required to follow this page.IIS SetupIIS application must be installed. If it is installed, it should be checked whether ASP.net components are installed.If the IIS application or ASP.net components are not installed, the 'Internet Information Services' button is checked on the'Open or Close Windows Features'menu, then the ASP/ASP .NET 3.5/ASP .NET 4.8 boxes in'Word Wide Web Services → Application Development Features' are checked.The process is automatic. After completion, IIS installation is provided.Launch IIS applicationA new application pool is created..Net CLR version: v4.xx Managed successive mode: IntegratedAfter the pool is created, the application pool ID must be created in the advanced settings. The account defined here must be fully authorized to the'GEODI' and'Defined AppData' Folders.Maximum Worker Processes must be 1.Recycling Conditions - Regular time intervals must be disabled in the pool settings.GEODI should be run as GEODI.exe for GEODI licensing and initial setup.GEODI IIS Service will run continuously. You should use GEODI.EXE for project editing or other purposes. Turning GEODI off and on does not affect the IIS service. GEODI will be accessible as long as IIS is up. Windows logins are not required.If you are using a MAPed directory in GEODI resources or for other tasks that need to be done at startup, the required .bat file should be placed in the GEODI - Settings/BatchFiles/Startup directory.After completing the IIS installation, in order to serve GEODI over IIS, the'AppDataFolder' value must first be determined as specified in System Configuration - Security Settings. The GEODI application on IIS must also be able to access the specified directory.{ 'AppDataFolder':'C:\GEODI_APPDATA' }Site CreationA new website is created through the sites. General settings such as site name, physical path, port, domain are made.You can check the authorization controls for the directory you have given with the option to check the settings.The'GEODI' pool we created before should be selected from the application pool. |
GEODI Error Logs | Error Logs:These are the records of errors that occurred during the GEODI operation.AppErrorIn AppError, there are explanations of the errors originating from the server in GEODI.It is in the directory.EngineErrorThere are error logs and explanations that GEODI encountered during scanning. Information such as inaccessible website, incorrect PDF, encrypted file are included in these logs.It is in the directory.Windows Event LogsWindows receives separate logs when running GEODI and its components.#### GEODI System Report: There are various reports available for each project on the GEODI Manager/Projects Page.

Process Management | Features such as note taking, panels, queries and tracking provide practical process management and traceability. You can see the status of jobs with panels or queries. According to your needs, you can create custom panels that fit the needs of your organization. · In classical software, the process starts with a record. With GEODI, process management starts with a document. This approach makes things easier, prevents unnecessary data entry and allows you to focus on work. · For example, for a job application, the process starts with a CV document without the need for further data entry. In a traditional software, you would have to re-enter a pile of information already included in the CV such as the person's name, school, date of birth, certificates, etc. GEODI saves you from such unnecessary work. Add the CV with drag and drop and let the process begin. You do not need to associate certificates or other documents of the person separately. GEODI automatically recognizes and associates contact names or trids. The applicants will be aware of the documents you attach. They take positive/negative notes, and these notes go to the interviewers. The process continues smoothly. Another example is related to social media. Social media is now an indispensable medium for organizations and companies to reach and listen to citizens or users. Suppose a complaint comes in from social media. The message is a document for GEODI and you can take a note. It is enough to write the name of the relevant person or unit in the note for the relevant people to know. With GEODI's smart methods, it is also possible to automatically identify the relevant unit depending on the content. For municipalities or special provincial administrations Construction license processes involve many stakeholders such as the Municipality, Building Inspection Company, contractors and owners. With GEODI, it is very easy to monitor the processes and ensure that the necessary documents are collected in full. You can access the experiences of our users such as Aksaraya Municipality and Artvin Special Provincial Administration in webinars. Our other example is about project processes. Construction companies and engineering offices produce many projects in AutoCAD, Microstation, Netcad, ArcGIS or GeoTIFF formats. During the maturation process of these projects, many versions are created. It is difficult to track and easy to make mistakes because files are saved in directories with different names, come from e-mail attachments, etc. GEODI simplifies the maturation process. It reduces errors by finding similar and duplicate documents alongside versioning.Using GEODI instead of process management software based on manual data entry, which employees or external stakeholders find difficult to comply with, gives you speed, practicality and fluency |
How to read GEODI Logs | GEODI keeps its logs under appdata/dece/logs. These logs are in CEF format and can be processed by SIEM tools. %AppData%\Dece\Logs\GEODI\AppUsage directory contains the logs required for SIEM. |
How will the agents deploy? | You can use ManageEngine, PDQ, SCCM or a similar tool. GEODI Classification solution automatically generates the MSI and parameters required for agent deployment. Updating of agents is automatic, checked every 2 days.
If a there is few machine you can manually run the MSI.
Agents are monitored from a panel. |
GEODI Data Masking | Masking means blacking out sensitive data in a content or replacing it with fixed text. The GEODI Masking tool creates a masked copy of your document. Masking accuracy is very high thanks to GEODI Discovery powered by Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language Processing.The masking module provides several different masking capabilities.File Masking: In file-based data, discovery layers identified as sensitive or designated as copies are masked. It is possible to define rules separately for personal data, financial data, or any other type of data. A duplicate document can be created where all discovered words, identifiers, or dictionary-based findings are concealed. Different masking options may result in variations of the same document shared with legal and procurement units.Dynamic Masking: Selected discovery layers for specified groups/users are dynamically masked. This means that while one user sees the document in its entirety, another user may view it with financial areas or personal data concealed.Database Masking: It is possible to mask a database for software development teams. This capability should not be confused with products that perform dynamic database masking.Masking with GEODI Discovery takes into account personal data, financial data, or dictionaries discovered during the exploration process.File MaskingGEODI creates a copy of the content undergoing masking to perform the process. The operation functions in the 'Mask and Download' manner.Masking operates in the following formats:Word (*.doc, *.docx, *.rtf)Excel (*.xlsm, *.csv, *.xlsx, *.xls)PDF (*.pdf)Powerpoint (*.ppt, *.pptx, *.ppsx)LibreOffice (*.odp, *.odt, *.ods)In the viewers of supported formats for the masking process, access is available under the button.You can mask all discovered data or a selected subset by creating as many definitions (Masking Metadata) as needed.By default, the following definitions are provided. Changes and additions can be made using the method specified on this page.For example, with masking, a name like 'Hasan Hüseyin' can be masked as '[NAME]' or '****'. Different masking formats can be defined based on different identifiers using definitions. This means that names, IBANs, and currency expressions can all be masked differently.Dynamic MaskingWith dynamic masking, the results of the discovery are visible in screens such as the viewer, words, network graph, summary, etc., in a masked form.Masking in the viewer is applicable to the following types, regardless of their source, whether they are embedded in a File Server, SharePoint, or a Database.Office Files (Word, Excel, PowerPoint)Open Office (ODT, ODS, ...)PDFTXT, XPSOn the last page of the project wizard, the 'Dynamic Masking' box is selected, and settings are configured.Once adjustments are made, files in the project are displayed to users in a masked format.It operates with group-based authorization.A masking metadata is defined for each group.When group members open a file from the project, it is displayed in a masked form according to the defined masking metadata.The 'No Masking' setting displays the results without masking for the defined group.Groups and members without authorization display all discovery results in a masked form.In accordance with the 'All' masking metadata.When downloading files, it also downloads them in a masked form.Database MaskingDatabase masking performs permanent masking on the given database. If you want the original data to remain intact, you can also work on a copy.Database masking provides several use cases:When you need to share your database with software or testing teams. Masking permanently removes sensitive data from your database for this use case.When you share your database for data analysis, it permanently removes sensitive data, allowing you to safely share the database.AuthorizationThe authorization for masking is the same as the document download permission. Those with download permission can use masking.Dynamic masking allows authorization at the user and discovery layer levels.License A MASKING license is required for masking.The number of users using masking is equal to the number of GEODI users.Masking is meaningful with Corporate Search.It is recommended to have a Discovery license for masking. Otherwise, masking will be limited to information discovered within the scope of STD.Batch MaskingTo create a script for Bulk Masking, go to the Reports menu. For this script, specify the masking profile and the directory where result files will be located. The generated script can also be edited to modify the original files.Masking ProfilesMasking profiles determine which discovery results will be masked and how they will be masked using the Masking Module. The Masking Module provides the following default profiles, which you can customize according to your needs.You will need the ID values for batch operations like Bulk Masking. |

How to see ADS labels? | ADS(Alternate Data Stream) is an NTFS feature. You may use 'dir /r' command to list them. They are a feature of the NTFS filesystem and may not be preserved in some cases. Labels are preserved if you rename the file, change file extension from txt to log or mp4 to avi or if you copy the file to another NTFS filesystem with or without the GEODI classifier installed.
The are not preserved if the file is copied through RDP, Wetransfer, or similar ways or to non-NTFS filesystem, if the file is carried in a compressed file (Rar/zip) or the file is attached to an e-mail. |
How to send a large number of emails simultaneously, like Mail Merge? | Under normal circumstances, a classification pop-up opens for each email. To prevent this in bulk emails, you just need to add the %AutoClass% expression to the email body or Word document for mail merge. The sent emails will be automatically classified without opening a pop-up. Alternatively, you can create a separate classification policy for Outlook/OWA. |
To use maps in different GIS software | WMSYou can use GEODI maps in different software via OGC WMS. In this way, ArcGIS, netcad GIS, Autocad Civil 3D, GeoServer, Google Earth software or all software using infrastructures such as Open Layers, Leaflet can use the map produced with GEODI's non-structural data. GEODI supports the OGC WMS 1.3.0 standard. In other words, when you click on the map on clients that support the 1.3.0 standard, the dialog opened in GEODI opens.WMS offers live connection. When you change the query on the GEODI side, the published map changes. (If you have problems with the change, you should check the cache settings of the relevant software) |
Note taking and Simple Workflows with GEODI | The GEODI note mechanism offers a practical and efficient way to work together. Taking notes saves you from unnecessary e-mails and the clutter of documents in their attachments. When reviewing a contract, editing is made much easier based on your colleagues' notes on the clauses. With document versioning, all processes and participants are recorded. You can take notes spatially on GEODI CAD&GIS viewers. A similar scenario can be applied to an architectural project or any of the many spatial data formats that GEODI supports. The person seeing the note is directed straight to the relevant point. Uncertainties are eliminated. A note in a Word or PDF file goes to the corresponding page. A note in an AutoCAD or Netcad file goes to the corresponding coordinate. Your annotation to a video goes to the corresponding second. A note is also a document type. With 'doc:*.geodinote' you can only query notes. · You can search from the content of the note. With 'doc:*.geodinote positive' finds notes with positive in them. You can search the parent0 document according to the content of the note. child: 'positive' queries documents with a 'positive' note. With 'parent2:' you can query the notes received for a document. You can get the notes of a document as a report. With the 'owner:', you can search according to the user who received the note. With the Notes panel, you can see the notes taken and the annotated documents. This panel makes it easier for you to monitor processes.You can determine who can see each note.You can specify other users with '@' in the notes and notify them by e-mail. With the transmitted e-mail, the recipient directly accesses the annotated page of the document. GEODI recognizers are active while taking notes. Recognized contents are marked. If there is a status dictionary defined on the basis of the source, you can enable standard note taking. |
How to back up the index and creat the Disaster Recovery environment? | Periodic backup of the index and creation of an active/passive DRM environment is described on this page https://support.decesoftware.com/space/geodien/3973808297/Active-Passive+and+Active-Active+configuration. By only backing up, it speeds up the system startup and activation in case of possible interruptions. |
Index Backup | Backup or synchronization of GEODI projects or just the index can be driven by different needs.Backup of the index against possible loss: Indexing all data takes a long time. Recovering from backup in case of possible loss is necessary for a much more uninterrupted service. Since GEODI can index changing content, the difference between the backup and the current index is completed in a short time. We recommend daily backups. GEODI installation comes ready for daily backup. You just need to activate it. If you have created an Active-Passive disaster recovery configuration, it is necessary to have a copy of the index for fast transition. The backup procedure is the same. You can find detailed information on Active-Passive and Active-Active configuration page.Index BackupGEODI index is located under %appdata%\dece\geodi\GeodiIndex2.0. The files in this directory are in constant use and therefore backup should be done with the command. securely backs up GEODI while it is running to the directory where you provide the index. Notes taken after the last backup and documents added by drag and drop will be lost.Backup can be periodized with the Windows scheduled task engine.The GeodiWS Project file and other settings should also be synchronized. How to do it is explained in Active-Passive and Active-Active configuration .GEODI Commands should be available in files with DCC extension. You can call these DCC files in Batch or PowerShell. Example DCC is given below. The destination directory and WorkdSpace name must be edited appropriately. If there is more than one WorkSpace, it should be done separately for each one.d.BackupIndex('[Destination Directory to Backup]','[WorkSpace name]')In order to backup smoothly on GEODIs with SSL Certificate installed, and must be added in .You can create a scheduled task with https://forsenergy.com/tr-tr/taskscheduler/html/1a2d9e12-4713-40a9-9c8c-e2ad6316811b.htm or any other method you prefer. |
How are password protected and erroneous files processed? | GEODI indexes only the name of password protected files. Protected files indexed in this way can be listed with the queries 'status:GEODICryptedContent' or 'status:GEODICryptedContentPart'.
Files with errors can be queried with “status:HasScanError” |

Tasks such as creating new projects, editing projects with the project wizard, starting/stopping indexing are done here. Options may look different according to authorizations.You create and edit projects with the project wizard. GEODI Scanning Options: You can perform Scanning/Optimization operations of projects from the Projects menu. Scan for Changes: It is used to add the changes made to the content scanned by GEODI to the GEODI index. Adjustments can be made based on source or project in an automatically scheduled manner.Maintenance: Optimize is recommended for better performance.Apply Project Changes to Old Content: The changes you have made in your project do not need to be used to be effective on Index. For example, a new recognizer added to the project, so you can apply the changes in the project with a minimum loss of time. You can complete this process without the need to scan again.Remove Deleted Content: GEODI keeps the resources on the Index it creates after scanning them, then this method is used to remove them from the GEODI Index when there is a situation such as deletion of these resources.Edit Authorizations: Authorizations of users can be changed by institution administrators. In this case, the settings made via LDAP are automatically applied when this method is applied on GEODI so that no unauthorized person can see it.RepairFast: RepairIt is the first method to be used when there is a problem with the index.Detailed RepairIn cases where the Quick Repair does not give results, you should choose the Detailed Repair method.This method takes more time than the Quick Repair method.Scan All ContentUsed when the project first starts after the sources are setDictionariesThis is the area where the dictionaries you will use in projects are managed. Options may look different according to authorizations.SettingsThe Settings area is where user settings and other settings are collected. |

Do agents strain the endpoint? | No, the GEODI Classification and GDE (Discovery) agents are designed to impose minimal load on the endpoint/client machines. |
Sharing Dictionaries | To share a user dictionary, it is sufficient to share the '.geodiDictionary' file of the user dictionary. The dictionaries are located in the folder %APPDATA%\Dece\Geodi\Dictionaries. You can save the file to the target computer's memory, to the sharing folder on the network or share it via HTTP. To share a GEODI dictionary effectively, ensure the '.geodiDictionary' file and all associated source files are stored together in the same directory. For CSV dictionaries, this includes the CSV file used as the source. For Shapefile dictionaries, besides the '.shp' file, include all related files like '.cpg', '.dbf', '.prj', '.sbn', '.sbx', '.xml', and '.shx' within a ZIP file named '[Shapefile File Name].shp.zip'. When sharing via HTTP, upload the ZIP file alongside the '.geodiDictionary' file on the server. Ensure all file dependencies are correctly organized to facilitate seamless integration into GEODI's dictionary management system. |
GEODI Classifier | This page is a guide for installing server and client-side tools of the GEODI Classifier. Installation of a Manual/Automatic classification project takes 1 to 2 hours. If GEODI is the first classification tool, you may instantly start with ready classes. These classes are refined with many different user experiences. If you already have a classification tool, then it is also easy to port as well. You may anytime change the policies after installing the agents. Agents automatically update the policies. GEODI Classification Policy Manager allows you to override policies by groups, persons, client software, IP and more. Please check GEODI Classifier FAQ page for anything else you wonder. We provide ready to use panels to watch agents and classification actions(logs). After agents distribution users may start classification.

GEODI Desktop Explorer(GDE) Installation | GDE (GEODI Desktop Explorer) is a solution for indexing data on endpoints and file servers without needing to define shares. It operates on Windows, Linux, macOS, and Pardus environments. The GDE agent crawls endpoints or file servers and sends selected files to the GEODI Server, enabling local file discovery and search without folder sharing. GDE updates every 3 hours to capture changes and supports remote classification and remediation with GEODI Classifier. Installation involves manual deployment on endpoints or use of tools like ManageEngine or SCCM for mass deployment. Detailed configuration settings customize folder inclusion and file types per client, managed via configuration files on the GEODI server. Troubleshooting involves verifying access to the GEODI Server, firewall settings, and agent operational status. Additionally, GEODI provides an API for status monitoring and error handling, with token creation for secure access management. Check the website for more information. |
Templates | To select a template, you should write '<geodiurl>&Template=<Template name>' at the end of the url. Templates determine how the content will appear.Template1-Template7 |
GEODI Dictionary and Recognizers | GEODI Evaluates content with 2 methods: Dictionaries and Recognizers. Dictionaries are predetermined lists of words. The information contained in dictionaries are terms such as 'Ankara', 'Istanbul', 'construction', 'purchasing'. Synonyms of these words can also be defined in dictionaries.Recognizers automatically extract some information from the text. For example, information such as Block/Parcel numbers, Kilometers and Email addresses are automatically collected. See GEODI Application Modules for recognizers added with GEODI Standard and other modules.Recognizers and Dictionaries are called Layers in GEODI. GEODI Layers can be added within a Project, allowing multidimensional analysis of content.GEODI Dictionaries can be shared with other GEODI users. This centralizes and simplifies both installation, standardization and development. |

It allows manual marking and task assignment over videos.GEODI 360 is compatible with software such as ArcGIS or Netcad.GEODI 360 is an ideal documentation and inspection tool for Road, Canal, Dam, Pipeline, large facilities, and campuses. It provides great savings by minimizing the time spent in the field and at the same time provides coverage that cannot be done individually or manually in the field.Data CollectionData collected with an internal GPS-enabled camera or any camera supported by an external GPS tracker is automatically processed.Some compatible devicesMio Mivue 330https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ipcamsoft.com.smartdashcam Available for Android devices.Data is easy to capture and, thanks to widespread and relatively inexpensive hardware, can be captured in large numbers, allowing you to take images daily or even hourly if necessary, rather than monthly. Up-to-date data is always useful.Following formats are supported as GPS Way Points '.srtmap' '.nmea', '.gpx', '.gps', '.flightplan', '.fpl', '.igc', '.xml'. Navigate within imagesEach video will appear as a track on the map. The image of the place you click on the map will open. You can move back and forth in the video. You will also get the current time location.Access to Old DataYou will also be presented with past (or future) images of the place you are navigating to. By clicking on the image you can go to the relevant time.Location marking via videoThe GEODI note-taking mechanism also applies here. With a note on the video, you can mark road defects, other problems that come into the image, a worn crosswalk, a broken sign and much more.Your notes will appear as a dot on the GEODI map. You can assign tasks by mentioning people in these notes. Note taking and Simple Workflows with GEODITrafficProTrafficPro is an optional module running under GEODI 360. TrafficPro recognizes Traffic Signs from images and keeps an inventory. It compares continuously incoming images of the same satellite and reports missing signs. In this way, it increases road safety.ImageProImagePro is an optional module running under GEODI 360. ImagePro recognizes objects in videos. If these objects are not among the ImagePro ready models, the necessary models can be created.Camera MountingYou can install a single camera in a vehicle or multiple cameras (Right/Left, Wider angle, Front/Rear, etc.).

Why does deleted files still appear in search results? | This behaviour is by design. In order to remove deleted files from the GEODI index, you need to delete deleted files from the Project Management interface. |
Supported Formats | GEODI supports over 200 formats (support may vary depending on your license) GEODI reads text information, contact information, and other metadata within each format. It becomes searchable. The specified formats can be selected separately in the GEODI search interface, and, for example, only PDFs can be searched. Including: Microsoft Office, PDFs, emails, images, videos, social media, databases, CAD/GIS, and others, with options for defining external metadata. |
Why are Classification Agents not updating automatically? | The classification agents automatically check whether there is an up-to-date version on the server every two days. Access to documents.decesoftware.com should be provided for this control and automatic update process. If access is available but automatic installation is not occurring, firewall settings should also be checked. |
Can internal e-mails in an organization(same domain) exluded from classification? | Yes, in the GEODI Classification Management Interface, you can optionally exclude email sent by users within the same domain from classification |
Can GEODI Classifier understand documents classified with a different classification tool? | Yes. As long as the labeling scheme is the same, it doesn't matter which tool was used for the classification. The GEODI classification tool understands the class of a previously classified file and behaves according to policy settings. |
Why does the system index repair after shutdown and reboot? | This is normal behavior. Power outages, system hardware problems, deliberate application shutdowns, and many other issues can cause unintentional shutdowns. In this case, the index will undergo a health check at the next startup for possible damage and any errors found will be fixed. To speed up the process, you need to back up the index and recover from backup on startup. Recovering from backup does not cause irreversible data loss. The next time you index what has changed, the latest additions are refreshed. |
Module GEODI Standard | GEODI Standard serves as the foundational module upon installation, automatically integrating other licensed applications. Additional tools like 3D maps or measurement tools can be optionally installed from DECE-STORE. Standard features include the Locations Recognizer, identifying coordinate expressions and placing them on maps from sources such as GPS-enabled photos or document coordinates. The Date Recognizer interprets diverse date formats, supporting multiple languages and relative expressions like 'yesterday'. Reporting capabilities include Content List and Content Summaries for detailed data analysis, accessible with a GEODI Pro license. The Image Similarity Module, also part of the standard package, facilitates efficient image search and comparison within archives or online, enhancing retrieval accuracy. |

GEODI Disk Requirements | GEODI Server requires extra storage for the following purposes other than the installation. DataGEODI does not copy but uses and indexes your data from where it is. So no additional storage is needed for the data.IndexThe index is the database of GEODI to perform search, discovery, and other functions. Index size varies greatly depending on data volume, types, and settings.If you want to reduce the index size due to disk restrictions, you may take the following measures.Make the index folder compressed( %appdata%\Dece Software\geodi\workspaces). This change gives a 10%+ gain in most cases.You may prevent the indexing text and/or number-rich files like excel, CSV, and log.Activation content similarity increases index size.You may disable Content summaries and gain up to 90%. ProjectWizard -> Last Page -> Advanced Properties -> JSON -> DisableIndex_Summary:True;But when a new dictionary or recognizers are added, you must restart indexing from the beginning instead of using the quick indexing option. The GEODI index consists of 3 parts. You can split these three parts into different discs. The first part is critical for speed and is better to reside in fast storage(SSD). You may put other parts in other storage with more free space. Index BackupsFor uninterrupted operations, You need to allocate enough space for the index backup.Index Backup and Recovery from BackupLogsLogs are located under %appdata%. Logs are automatically deleted in 90 days. But if they grow high, You can delete the logs you need.GEODI LogsOCRThe OCR converts the scanned content into text. By default, the OCR process does not require any extra storage, and there will be no loss in search and discovery capabilities.But if you create SPDF (Searchable PDF), Extra storage is required for SPDFs. https://decesw.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/geodien/pages/3973841411/Module+OCRBackup ContentA feature to back up all content from any source(social media, folders, or files from remote PCs gathered by GDE). You need to allocate space for backup. |

Why are email signatures recognized as personal data? | This is totally normal. The signatures contain names and telephone numbers at minimum. If you want to change this, you could prepare a dictionary to exclude the signatures. The same method works for header/footer information in Letterheaded Word files. |
How are files without label support classified? | Files without label support are classified using the ADS (Alternate Data Stream) method for file types other than PDF and Office documents. |
Source E-mail | There are two ways to index e-mail content and attachments in GEODI. No action is required for *.PST or *.OST files as they are indexed automatically.This page is about indexing e-mail servers.If your e-mail server is not listed, you may use IMAP or POP3 protocols provided in Other. You may limit e-mails by using the filter.You should add each e-mail account one by one. If you need to add all at once, there is a solution for Exchange Server. Check website for more infromation. |
Does the date of the classified documents change? | No, GEODI classification tools preserve the file date. |
GEODI 101 - Basic User Training | After this training, you will be able to use GEODI for Enterprise Search, Archive, Social Media Monitoring and other business needs. Suggestions for the next course.

Source SharePoint | SharePoint connection is on Cloud Drives. Files in the selected folders will be indexed. Ignore, and other rules apply. With Sharepoint Online and Sharepoint Onpremise option, you can connect to your sharepoint account with Online or OnPremise installation.You must provide an authorized SharePoint user.You may define different connections to the same site with different rules, like OCR on/off or different discovery coverage. Conditions for connectionAn Online or OnPrem SharePoint service access addressA SharePoint account with minimum read privileges, the scope of discovery will be limited to that user's accessGiving usage approval when connecting to Sharepoint Online in GEODI. (Asked Once)Sharepoint OnlineTo connect an account, a redirect is made to the MS Site. After entering the Username and password, the directory you want to be discovered is selected.Sharepoint On PremiseThe Service Address to be Connected, User Name and Password information is filled in the relevant field. After the connection is established, the directory that you want to discover is selected.Classifying Content on Sharepoint from GEODI ES InterfaceThe desktop, Office Add-in, and classification tools work on files in SharePoint Online under the following conditions.GEODI operates in an executable (exe) mode.SharePoint connections must be established using the MAP(Network Drive) method.In SharePoint Online usage, you can apply the MAP method by utilizing the instructions provided on the https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/sharepoint-view-in-edgepage. Microsoft SharePoint does not offer a similar method for on-premises, so the recommended solution is only applicable to SharePoint Online.Trouble ShootingWhile making Sharepoint online connection, make sure that your machine has internet.If the Username Password is entered incorrectly, a warning code is received. You should check the login username and password information. warning is received when your Service Address is entered incorrectly. When this warning is received, you should check your service address. |
Can I perform batch classification? | Yes, query the target and choose “Batch Classification” from GEODI facet area. Files form Folder, FileServer and GDE(PCs) will be included. Labels will be written to the respective files or as alternate data streams (ADS). |
GEODI Maps | One of the most important and distinctive features of GEODI is that it can produce maps with both structured and unstructured data.Unlike traditional GIS software, GEODI does not require tabular data. The place name in a PDF, or the parcel number in a document, or the kilometer value in a road project is recognized as a location. It can bring together a large number of data that do not fit together schematically.In addition to geographic maps, GEODI can also use an electrical diagram or a picture of an airplane as a 'map' |
Why is the indexing too slow? | GEODI is designed to make optimal use of the server. Server memory and CPU resources are used dynamically. The number of concurrent tasks is increased for simple and fast processing files and decreased for heavy files. If the processing is too slow:
Memory may be low or being used by other processes running on the server.
There may be processes that consume high CPU resources, such as intensive OCR.
Network connections to the filerserver may be very slow.
There is content such as a large number of logs, csv, large excel files.
There may be network problems with database connectivity or database congestion.
The Project Wizard may decrease indexing speed and cause the issue. |
Troubleshooting Database | No result from the DB sources: Connection string may not be correct. You should test before saving the project. You can do it now.Check the permissionsIndex error logs should be checked. You can examine the errors received in the scan with the developer report via GEODI.DBmetas may not be correct Jsettings files should be syntax validated, you can use https://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/ site for this validation.Check the correctness of the column, table and GEODI project names and their names on the Table/Column/Project database. I have no DB connection but results shows many rowsGEODI, by default, crawls file based databases like SQlite or Access. These files are processed like office or PDF files. You may set to ignore them. Embedded or linked files does not shown:You should define DB meta to do that. This page explains ho to create DB metas. Indexing is slowBy default GEODI crawls all table and all rows. You may use sampled discovery, or narrow the target.Your DB might also be serving another application.GEODI indexing speed options might be at low, increase it. GEODI Server might be running on a low capacity machine, with insufficient memory or slow disk. Please check the system requirements page. DB row version are increasing: Every reindex (scheduled or manually) after the first index may generate version for tables w/o a primary key. This does not affect the discovery results, or reports bu only the GEODI Index size. GEODI indexing generates such tables in the error logs. Please check error log to see wihih tables are affected. GEODI, by default, requires a primary key (PK) column to exist. So unless you set otherwise this situation does not occur. You may also choose to put a PK to your tables(a best practice). A PK column for GEODI is a column with a unique value in each row. If table has PK but you still get the error, then primary key column name should be registered to GEODI by defining a DB meta. Permissions are not affective: GEODI, by default, reads all rows with same persmissions. To set a row based permission please use DB meta. FAQ: Can I index embedded files in the tables?Yes. with a few simple DBmeta definitions you may index those files. In this case GEODI will show row and file separately. You will be able to query the file using DB attributes. How can I open CRM application through GEODI search?It is possible. You index the CRM database and with a simple DB meta and set a link that opens the original CRM apps. CRM app should have a simple URL(query string) that can be build using the attributes. |

Conditions for connectionGEODI Desktop Explorer(GDE) Installation page has the configuration steps for you to follow. |
Search by | 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 or 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. By Content Name&Type - search PDF files,(actually means names ending with .pdf) - Any content that name starts with Training - Tweets -> Tweets with word possible in name or body -> Tweets with word possible in name only - notes - is a shortcut for Search by DatesWrite dates in a natural way. GEODI finds all dates, no matter how they are written. 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. prefix limits searches to contentdate(like, file date or tweet date), Search by Dates -> Content with 23 April 1923, 04.23.1923 or .. -> Any content that has date within the range -> 1st of May to December 31 of 1923( - content that have the given date. -> the content added today. Search by Relative Date Clauses: You can use the following clauses in queries. The reference date (today) is the computer. GEODI also recognizes these words in emails and social media(contentdate is exactly known source)Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow works as expected. This Week, Last Week, Next Week : These queries are converted to dates from Monday to Sunday.This Month, Last Month, Next Month: These queries are converted to dates from the first to the last day of the month..This Year, Last Year, Next year: These queries are converted to dates from 01 January to 31 December of the year.Next Decade: When this query is made, it returns the dates of the current week and the 10 years after this week.Last Decade: When this query is made, it returns the dates of the current week and the 10 years before this week. |

Active-Passive configuration | On this page we will explain how GEODI Server will work in a redundant structure. Active-Passive configurationFor Active-Passive you need 2 servers and 2 GEODI licenses. The settings and index on both servers must be equivalent (we will call them Active-GEODI and Passive-GEODI)In order for the GDE and/or Classification Agents working connected to the GEODI Server to work uninterruptedly, DNS records must be edited at the time of transition. In other words, the Active-GEODI address should be Passive-GEODI after the transition. For this reason, the IP option should not be used in the settings.Active and Passive GEODI configuration, project settings, version and modules must be equivalent. According to GEODI Privacy settings, the settings can only be valid on the respective machine. This must be taken into account during the synchronization phase. The Token used for GDE and/or Classification agents must be the same. Active and Passive GEODI must use the same LDAP users. The token received for the same user will be the same.Active and Passive GEODIs can work on the same index and/or copies. The source addresses, UNCPaths, must be the same on both servers. For this purpose, network access addresses should be the same if there are directories mapped to drive names with commands like net use or subst |
GEODI Automatic Notification and E-Mail Settings | It provides 2 basic monitoring capabilities with the Automatic Notification Messages feature.You can monitor the queries you want.

Can we classify files discovered with GDE on remote PCs in-place? | If you have a Classification license for documents coming to the GEODI server through GDE, you can query and classify documents through GEODI ES, performing the classification on the source machine. The machine where the classification will take place must have our Classifier and GDE solutions installed. |
GEODI Classifier Batch Classification | GEODI Classifier is the common name for a set of tools for manual or automatic classification of data. There are plugins for Microsoft Office, Exchange Server, Office 365 and Windows. Classifier solutions are compatible with DLP solutions such as ForcePoint, Symantec and TrendMicro. Batch ClassificationWith GEODI you can perform batch classification for office and PDF files. You select the documents to be classified by search and classify them automatically or manually. Thus, hundreds of thousands or even millions of documents can be classified in a very short time.You can use criteria such as the presence of personal data in the documents as search criteria. |
