Search for Regions

There are two ways to search for continents or regions with SmartIndexing.

First, you can enter a particular region or continent in the COUNTRY segment to find stories that are 'about' that region.  These continent/region index terms are written to capture documents that discuss Europe or Africa.

country(africa) and subject("oil & gas exploration")

Like every other SmartIndexing term, you can add relevancy scores to these terms as well.

country(europe 9*%) and subject(telecommunications)

Second, if you want to broaden your search and capture stories that discuss every country within a continent or region, use one of the codes below. While the region index terms capture stories that are discussing a particular region, these codes are roll-ups that capture any story that is tagged with a country which makes up a particular continent or region.

Example: To find stories about telecom in Central Europe:

#gr153# and subject(telecom!)
