John Cosgrave is the Evaluation Advisor
and Coordinator for the Tsunami Evaluation
Coalition. The Tsunami Evaluation Coalition
is a joint initiative by UN agencies, Donor
Governments, the Red Cross, Non-Governmental

using dtSearch for working with large data
sets in humanitarian evaluations for the
last five years, and it is an essential
tool for working with such large sets of
documents ... Using dtSearch Publish allows
me to distribute CD-ROMs with evaluation

that they can use the power of dtSearch
to interrogate the data-sets."

"I
think dtSearch is an extraordinary software
accomplishment. I'm a university professor,
and I'd find it hard to function academically
-- in teaching, research, and book-writing
-- without dtSearch. I'd recommend
it strongly to any academic. dtSearch
is a great solution to information-finding
problems shared by all academics."—Peter
Landstreet, Sociology professor, York University,

11,000
old Hebrew books, OCR'ed by Ligature®,
and searchable online with dtSearch,
are now available through www.hebrewbooks.org.
The Society for the Preservation
of Hebrew Books has scanned more than
11,000 volumes of rare and out-of-print
works, which were in danger of being
lost, destroyed or simply disintegrating
due to the passage of time. “Ligature
gave us the OCR software we needed
to work with our multilingual collection. Thanks
to technology from dtSearch, the public
can now instantly search these books
from our site. Through dtSearch,
we can display the full image (PDF)
of these works, and dtSearch will jump
straight to the highlighted hits in
the full image of the texts, including
all graphics and even handwritten annotated
notes.”

FultonHistory.com
uses dtSearch online to search over
1.5 million newspapers and historical
photos from Upstate and Central New
York.
FultonHistory.com has scanned in over 150
years of newspapers into searchable PDF.
Visitors to this publicly-available site
can use dtSearch to search the entire collection
— with highlighted hits appearing right
on the scanned newspaper images. (For example,
a search for the Titanic instantly pulls
up hit-highlighted coverage from the original
disaster in 1912, as well as more modern
coverage of the discovery of the underwater
wreck.) “I searched high and low for
a product that would handle PDF text with
embedded images … I used the dtSearch
hit-highlighting feature to highlight words
seemingly right on the scans. Because of
the potential for OCR errors when scanning
old newspapers, dtSearch's fuzzy searching
is really important.”
