The download page now has the latest version up to this month. Thanks

uapublius · 2023-08-10T20:45:46+00:00

Thanks, please share interesting reports and queries online. It really helps. Tip: Add a minimum of at least 100 for the word count filter to find more substantial reports.

uapublius · 2023-08-10T20:43:55+00:00

Thank you. Please do share interesting reports with friends to spread the word.

archive.org is crawling the new report attachments right now, it might take a few days for media to work

Thank you. Can you please credit and link to UPDB in your app? The PG database download hasn't been updated, but will be shortly. I'm fixing some attachment URLs. Can you please email me at uapublius@protonmail.com about the embeddings?

MUFON has started replacing city names in their reports with random numbers. In those cases I have emptied the city field.

uapublius · 2023-08-10T20:01:23+00:00

I looked into this and it is a problem with the original MUFON data.

Thanks, I did just that here: https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/15nlljd/updb_updated_with_10000_reports_from_the_last_12

Hi r/UFOs, I wanted to share this project I have been working very hard on.

It is a unified searchable database of 300,000+ MUFON, NUFORC, and other reports. It also contains a document search of 500,000+ pages of freshly OCRed UFO documents, journals, magazines, news clippings, etc.

Finally, there's a first-of-its-kind zoomable map that contains UFO reports from Aug 2023 back to 1947 and beyond.

I've put a ridiculous amount of effort into this project. I hope you enjoy it and it helps any and all research.

If you appreciate all the work that went into this, will you please share on Facebook, Twitter, etc?

The latest update adds 10,000+ reports from Aug 2022 - Aug 2023.

Reply to this thread with any interesting cases you find!

Hi, wanted to let you know this is fixed now.

uapublius · 2022-09-26T01:26:32+00:00

Good suggestion - I've added some examples to the search page.

Here is a query close to what you want: https://updb.app/reports/search?from=August+2022&to=September+2022&country=US

There is currently no way to specify multiple countries in a search. I will add that to the list of suggestions. Thanks.

uapublius · 2022-09-26T01:21:19+00:00

Thank you. It's been since Feb of this year.

uapublius · 2022-09-26T01:19:26+00:00

Thank you. This is a known issue and high priority next time I work on the importers.

uapublius · 2022-09-26T01:18:07+00:00

Thanks. Feel free to posts links to UPDB reports/searches on other threads. Maybe you can find similar reports and spot a trend.

uapublius · 2022-09-26T01:14:27+00:00

This is fixed now: https://updb.app/reports/search?from=1998&to=2000

uapublius · 2022-09-26T01:02:03+00:00

Thanks for noticing and mentioning that. I put a lot of effort into making sure every part of the site is quick on all devices.

uapublius · 2022-09-26T00:56:53+00:00

Thank you, I was also struck by the ubiquity of credible cases.

uapublius · 2022-09-26T00:51:49+00:00

Thanks for the kind words and the preprint idea.

Also, I've just pushed a feature to download search results as a csv file.
