A Geodyssey – Geoscience Text Analytics and Enterprise Search Research
A voluntary non-commercial research blog since 2015
Delighted to be invited to give a seminar to staff and students yesterday (22nd March) at Edinburgh Napier University School for Computing and Centre for Social Informatics. Discussed how enterprises may wish to experiment with their search engines and user interfaces in an attempt to deliberately stimulate unexpected encounters which may lead to new knowledge...

Delighted to share the news that after a successful defence of my thesis this week I have been awarded my PhD. A BIG thank you to everyone who has contributed, supported or followed my progress these past 4 years, it is very much appreciated. I am very excited at the collaborations and projects that are...

Organizational information culture can be defined as the behavioural norms and values shown by employees towards information. Researching enterprise search technology artefacts that represent aspects of the culture in which they are deployed, some organizations may not score highly in supporting an information culture that enables innovation and creativity. In addition to mapping information cultures... Continue Reading →
I had an article published in Digital Energy Journal this month. Link here Most of us expect a search engine to be a tool which delivers us results such as documents, web pages, people profiles, lessons learnt and best practices when we type something into a box. But can it do more? Oil and gas... Continue Reading →
After presenting at conferences in the US and Europe, I have made some minor modifications to the 'Modality of Search' model I posted a few months ago. Version 2 below. This proposes a new way in which to view Enterprise Search and Discovery Capability. Link to PowerPoint and Explanation in SlideShare Click Here It is early... Continue Reading →
Delighted to be appointed to the Board of Directors of GeoScienceWorld (GSW) in the capacity of researcher-at-large last month. GeoScienceWorld is a non-profit collaborative for research and communications in the earth sciences. GeoScienceWorld was founded by the American Association of Petroleum Geologists • American Geosciences Institute • Geological Society of America • Geological Society of... Continue Reading →
Modern search driven applications can help exploit information collections to derive insights beyond those found in any single record, document or paper. Recent article published online at CMSWire here

A short article I wrote based on some recent research studies of using associative algorithms within enterprise search technology to stimulate fortuitous information encounters (serendipity) has been published in a column on CMSWire here
Many organizations are sitting on a wealth of unstructured text. There are many OpenSource and free tools than can help build large scale associative networks in either unsupervised or semi-supervised ways. With exponentially increasing volumes of information, much information is being ranked or suggested by popularity. That may effectively ‘censor’ some information through its obscurity....
