      Exploiting the results of my search


      In order to properly exploit the results of your search, you have two possibilities:

      • The "Expert" mode: this default mode gives you full control over all the filters (seen above) to display the axis you wish to explore.

       

      • The "Supervised" mode: will select for you the right filters corresponding to the use case you wish to exploit.

      This option is available in the menu on the right of your screen
