Search Functions

Quick Search

Using a standard Weave search it is possible for the user to select any number of named features. The Search is setup at an administrator’s level providing combo boxes which help the user find the information quickly and easily.

Multi Parameter Search

This is standard Weave functionality where a Search is created by the administrator to allow users to select various parameters that will execute a search of the server. The selected entities can then be zoomed to and highlighted.

Subcategories can be emulated using cascading list boxes where, as the parent list box is updated, the linked child list is refined to only show values that belong to the parent.

Dynamic List of attributes in pulldown menu for queries.

Using the standard Weave data definition, the administrator is easily able to setup both dynamic and static combo boxes.

1. Database datadefintions are created by using the standard Weave xml configuration defining a ‘Distinct’ query that will retrieve all values from a database table(s).
2. A static data definition allows the administrator to create a virtual table mirroring an actual table in a database. Values can be updated on the fly.
