最近构建了许多系统，它们利用地图查询界面来通过文档提到的位置来访问文档。这些提及通常是含糊不清的，因为对于这些地点存在许多解释，而这些解释并不总是与所有必要的限定词一起表达。换句话说，假设用户能够基于先前查询的知识或包含参考文献的文档的性质以及目标受众的知识来进行适当的识别。消歧过程称为地名解析。地图查询界面导致图标的放置以及指向地图上相应位置处的适当文档的链接。假设所有地名都已被识别（即，地名识别的召回率为 100%），本文展示了如何针对地名识别过程与至少一个文档关联的地名的所有解释实现地名解析的有效 100% 召回率。这是在显示所有这些解释的小地图的帮助下完成的，这意味着用户可以访问提及特定位置的所有文档，只要该位置的文本规范已被识别为位置而不是另一个实体（例如个人、公司、组织等）的名称。它还假设用户能够确定每个地名的正确解释。这很重要，因为它可以确定精确度和召回率。
A number of systems have been recently constructed that make use of a map query interface to access documents by the locations that they mention. These mentions are often ambiguous in the sense that many interpretations exist for the locations which are not always expressed along with all the necessary qualifiers. In other words, users are assumed to be able to make the appropriate identification based either on knowledge of prior queries or the nature of the document containing the references as well as knowledge of the target audience. The disambiguation process is known as toponym resolution. The map query interface results in the placement of icons and links to the appropriate documents at the corresponding location on the map. Assuming that all toponyms have been recognized (i.e., 100% rate of recall for toponym recognition), it is shown how to achieve an effective 100% rate of recall for toponym resolution for all interpretations of a toponym that the toponym recognition process associates with at least one document. This is done with the aid of a minimap that shows all of these interpretations which means that a user has access to all documents that mention a specific location as long as the textual specification to the location has been recognized as a location rather than as the name of another entity such as a person, company, organization, etc. It also assumes that the user is capable of determining the correct interpretation of each toponym. This is important as it enables the determination of precision and recall.
