  • entity1
    A free form text field containing information about the event "subject" -, i.e. an entity's disambiguous name.

  • verb
    A free form text field describing the event "verb"
  • verb_category
    Also a free form text field describing the event "verb", but intended to group related verbs together (eg "travel" for verbs: "flew", "drove")
  • geoindex
    If the event geotag maps into an entity from the parent document then this field is the "gazateer_index" of that entity
  • geotag
    • latitude
      String containing a floating point representation of latitude
    • longitude

In the sample output above please note that the Infinit.e harvester automatically generates the following fields as appropriate:

  • event_type
    "Event", "Fact", "Summary"
    The "event_type" field sub-categorizes the "event" object into one of three types, "Event", "Fact", or "Summary". Examples provided below should make the distinction clearer, but it can be simply described as follows:
    • "Event": link multiple entities (via "entity1_index", "entity2_index", "geo_index") and represent a transient activity (eg travel)
    • "Fact": link multiple entities like "Events" but represent (transient or permanent) relationships (eg being president)
    • "Summary": generally link 1 entity to a free text (eg a quotation: "Obama says...").
