There are two ways of searching for specific information in Yonder. 

• The global search allows users to locate information by searching across the entire documentation landscape they have access to. 
• The local search on the other hand is used to locate information directly within a specific document.

Search Logic

In Yonder following logic is implemented:

A search for the term ‘Operation’ will create following search hits:

• Exact hit: Search hits for the exact entered term. 
• Stemmed hits: Search hits for word stems are listed. These would include ‘operations', ‘operational’, ‘operating’

A search for multiple terms will create the following hits:

• Hits for both words
• Hits for individual words
• Hits for stemmed words

A search for exact multiple terms needs to be put in quotation marks. A search for “Dangerous Goods” will create following search hits:

• Hist only for exact the two terms mentioned in this combination, so only for “Dangerous Goods”

Global Search

Use this feature to search for specific information across the entire scope of documentation you have access to.

Example Global Search Functionality

In the generic example below, a user aims to locate information about noise abatement procedures for Airport Frankfurt.

The global search is located on the top right of the Yonder Reader Dashboard.

Begin by clicking on the search icon and enter the corresponding search query. Search results are returned as soon as you hit the return key on your keyboard.

To narrow down search results, use the functionality provided for in the sidebar located on the left hand side:

Sort: Sorts search results either by relevance or title.

Roles & Filters: Limit search results to corresponding filter criteria.

Document: Limits search results to a specific document.

In this generic example, the user aims to limit the search results by applying an airport specific filter criterion, as depicted in the image below.

Applying this filter reduced our initial search to but one result. To access the information at this point, simply click on the respective search result.

Once you access the information of interest, click on the “x” next to the search term to deactivate the highlighting of keywords related to your initial search

Local Search

Search for information within a specific document you have access to.

Example Local Search Functionality

In the generic example below, a user accesses a specific document and aims to locate information about the GPWS for a A330-200 with the specific registration N1111.

To do so, the user access the search function (1) located in the left hand sidebar of the document, followed by typing in the search query.

After hitting return on the keyboard, the related search results are returned instantly.

To further narrow down search results, simply click on the filter function located right above the search icon, followed by applying the desired filter criteria.

After clicking on the search icon once again, the user now only sees those search results that reflect the applied filter criteria. Remark: A user can also apply filters first and then execute the search (i.e. the specific order of execution doesn't matter).

To access any of the returned results, simply click on it.

Once you locate the information of interest, click on the “x” next to the search term in order to deactivate the highlighting of keywords related to your initial search.

Note that a search can also be expanded to a global search at any time, as hinted towards in the image above (1).
