About This Release

Voyager Search is happy to announce the release of our latest version of Vose and updates to Voyager Server. This release includes:

Major New Features: 

Pulse, a New Analytics Web App in HQ 

The new Pulse Analytics Dashboard tracks and reports traffic to the search engine allowing administrators to quickly view data about interactions with the system to provide insight into use and to help tailor the search experience. Currently only accessible to those using HQ, it can be accessed using the HQ drop down menu. Alternatively, Pulse is hosted on the same port as HQ, but at the path “/pulse” instead of “/app”, by default.

ESRI Format Improvements

Improvements were made to ArcGIS Pro file format indexing to include support for ArcGIS Pro Project files (.aprx) and ArcGIS compressed layer files (.lpkx). Additionally, we’ve added the “Open in ArcGIS Pro” functionality to open these file formats directly from Navigo in ArcGIS Pro. 

Spellcheck Pipeline Step Eliminates Errors  

This release includes a new Spellcheck Pipeline Step that corrects misspelled words in fields that contain text. This feature augments Voyager’s existing NLP/OCR features in Server and HQ. 

New Twitter Connector

We’ve added a Twitter connector that allows users to index tweets, retweets, location details, usernames, and other information. 

Library Upgrades 

This release also includes security patch upgrades for third party libraries, including Apache libraries such as Log4J, and Apache Solr. For more details, please contact support@voyagersearch.com.
