GeoSearch-Search-Engine

We developed a location-based search system for web documents on the internet. This system can find documents based on the distance between locations that are described in web documents and a location specified by a user. It consists of three modules.

• Gathering web documents,
• A parser extracts address strings from documents and associates latitude-longitude information to the original document and retrieval module.
• This system can retrieve location-related web documents overlooked by conventional keyword-based search engines.
