Enhance search via solar object aliases #97

Open aaccomazzi opened 5 years ago

aaccomazzi commented 5 years ago

To better serve the planetary community, we should enhance our searches with term expansion for solar system objects by using the API and data from this project: https://doc.ssodnet.imcce.fr/quaero.html

Issues to be decided:

  1. should this become part of the object field search via special handling?
  2. -or- should this become a simple synonym expansion over text fields?
  3. -or- a mix of the two (this particular synonym expansion applies only to a new ads_object field which is searched by a federated object field)?

It sounds like our PS friends voted yes on this one: https://twitter.com/aaccomazzi/status/1126921654800723968
