Investigation tools

Investigators use the Surveyor, Digital Impressions, Export, and Visualize tools to manage data in different ways.

The search results page is the default page on the Forensics tab. Search results are available on the Grid tab. Investigators use the search results on the grid to quickly search for and access documents. On the Grid tab, use the Surveyor, Digital Impressions, Export, and Visualize tools to further the investigation.

Row indicator

The row indicator provides a unique identifier for each document that is returned in a result set. Use the row indicator to send a document and all required related documents to the Reconstructed View visualization tool.

Row sort

You can sort the rows that are displayed in the grid. Because the total number of results might be larger than the number of results that are displayed on the grid, the entire result set cannot be sorted.

Documents viewed indicator

The documents viewed indicator is a small circle that alternates between red and green to indicate whether an investigator viewed a document.

Document selection

Investigators use the displayed documents selector to choose the number of documents that display in the results grid. You can use SELECT ALL to send documents to a subsequent function and you can send many documents for processing or visualization. When you select documents by using the displayed documents selector, you are selecting all documents and not just the documents present in the grid.
