Identify the various sources from which to gather data.
The Application Tool Set makes it easy to identify the various sources
from which to gather data. For news articles it might be as simple as identifying
a single directory tree, and the meta-data within the articles which is
to be stored or indexed in addition to the content. For a city guide it
could be as simple as identifying the path to a formatted data dump that
will contain the information, and identifying the fields which are to
be stored or indexed. Simply repeat the procedure for each new data source.
Merging of the data from the various sources will happen automatically.
