Anveshan

The idea

Search finds a passage. Anveshan is for exploring: it pulls people, places and relationships out of the archive, builds a graph you can browse, and never writes back to the archive itself.

Why it exists

To make the corpus explorable and open it to deeper research than one question at a time.

What it does

• —An entity page for each person, place or thing, with its relationships, mentions and facts
• —Related entities ranked by confidence and how often they appear together
• —Merge or ignore to clean up duplicates, with a batch review for near-matches
• —A needs-review queue for low-confidence entities, with type correction
• —A gazetteer with places shown on interactive maps
• —A reader that highlights mentions and links each back to its entity page
