Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods for indexing geological features are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for indexing geological features includes accessing a database storing a plurality of map objects that originate from documents. Each map object includes a map defined by a geographical boundary and a text caption. The method includes, for each map object, determining a plurality of geohashes within the geographical boundary, and includes, for each map object, comparing terms of the text caption with a list of geological keywords. For each map object, the method includes identifying one or more geological noun phrases within the text caption that match one or more geological noun phrases of the list. The method includes determining, for each geological noun phrase, one or more geohashes associated with the geological noun phrase and, for each geohash, determining a frequency that the geohash is associated with the geological noun phrase.
