What the Data for This Category Looks Like
Ordnance and equipment due diligence data primarily comes from public standards of the national defense and military industry, finalized test reports from military research institutes, equipment procurement record announcements, and industry technical white papers.
Data update rhythm varies by equipment phase: finalized mass-produced equipment has a lower update frequency, while data in the new research and test phase is updated per phase.
Most documents combine structured tables with technical notes, containing fields such as model, finalized time, core component parameters, and test conditions. Units mostly use common engineering measurement standards like millimeters, newtons, and seconds.
Constraints on Citation Sources and Traceability
The structured nature of ordnance and equipment data requires precise matching of fields to their corresponding source entries during traceability, to avoid mixing parameters across documents.
Public record data carries a unique procurement record number, which must be bound as the core identifier during traceability.
Equipment data from different phases (test / mass production) must be linked to their corresponding release time and test conditions, to clarify the validity boundary of cited data.
Additionally, some technical documents are published by military institutes, so the publishing unit must be marked to enhance traceability credibility.
How to Configure
| Configuration Item | Recommended Value | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Number of Recalled Entries | Top 8–12 entries | Ordnance and equipment documents are mostly structured long texts, so sufficient entries must be recalled to cover core parameters and test data |
| Chunk Length | 800–1200 characters | Adapts to the paragraph structure of ordnance and equipment technical documents, avoids splitting core parameter groups |
SOURCE_ID_FIELD | Record number / Model number | Matches the unique identifier field of ordnance and equipment data, ensures traceability accuracy |
PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS | 600 seconds | Large test report files take longer to parse, reserve sufficient processing time |
| Similarity Threshold | 0.72–0.80 | Distinguishes parameter descriptions of similar ordnance models, avoids recalling irrelevant entries |
| Number of Reranked Returned Entries | Top 3–5 entries | Focuses on core technical parameters and traceability identifiers, reduces redundant display content |
The parameter values provided on this page are common starting points for configuration. Actual values are affected by material form, data volume and business rules. Specific issues require specific analysis. It is recommended to test on one’s own samples before finalizing settings.
Three Common Mistakes
- Phenomenon: Raw Markdown code is displayed in context citations, rather than rendered output. Cause: The Markdown rendering switch after document parsing is not enabled, so structured parameter tables in ordnance and equipment documents are not correctly rendered into readable format.
- Phenomenon: Unable to match the corresponding record number field during traceability. Cause:
SOURCE_ID_FIELDis not configured as the record number or model number, using the default text field directly leads to missing identifiers. - Phenomenon: Parameter entries from non-target ordnance and equipment models are mixed in recall results. Cause: Similarity threshold is set too low, failing to distinguish technical descriptions of similar models, leading to recall of redundant data.
How to Verify Proper Configuration
- Upload an ordnance and equipment finalized test report, check if the parsed text retains the hierarchical structure of structured tables, and confirm that the Markdown rendering switch is active.
- Enter a query containing specific ordnance model parameters, verify that the traceability column of the returned results displays the preset record number or model number.
- Adjust the similarity threshold and initiate a repeated query, compare the change in the number of recall results to confirm that the threshold configuration affects the recall range as expected.
- Check the parsing task logs, confirm that the
PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDSconfiguration does not trigger timeout errors, and that large documents can be parsed normally.
