Policy and Regulatory Basis Q&A for Telecommunications Engineering Construction: Document Parsing and Chunking

Policy and Regulatory Basis Q&A for Telecommunications Engineering Construction: Document Parsing and Chunking

What this category of data looks like

Telecommunications engineering construction policy and regulatory basis data comes from official announcements, industry standard documents, engineering construction quota documents, etc., issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, and local industry regulatory authorities. Updates are synchronized when new policies are released, standards are revised, or annual updates occur. Supported document formats include editable Word, PDF, and some scanned PDFs. Most documents follow a structure that includes document numbers, issuing entities, effective dates, chapters and clauses, attached data tables, and more. Fields covered include policy numbers, applicable scope, specific implementation clauses, engineering parameter indicators, and more. Units used include ten thousand yuan, kilometers, square meters, number of ports, and others.

Dispersed data sources lead to diverse document formats, including both editable text and scanned PDFs. This requires the parsing process to support multi-format adaptation. Policy documents have strict clause hierarchies. Chunking must retain associated information such as document numbers and chapter numbers to avoid splitting independent clauses. Engineering parameter tables in attachments must fully preserve field associations, and cell content cannot be split. Update frequencies are inconsistent. The system must support batch re-parsing of historical documents, and distinguish between policy versions to avoid confusion.

Configuration Settings

Configuration ItemRecommended SettingRationale
chunkSize800–1200 charactersPolicy document clauses are mostly short paragraphs, balancing semantic completeness and indexing density
chunkSplitterChunk by title + paragraphMatches the hierarchical structure of policy documents, avoiding splitting independent clauses
customPdfParseEnable OCR modeProcess some scanned official policy PDFs to fully extract printed text
PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS300–600 secondsLarge policy compilation files take longer to parse, preventing mid-parsing timeout interruptions
UPLOAD_FILE_MAX_SIZE1000 MBAdapt to uploads of large industry standard documents containing multiple attachments
chunkSettingModeManual configurationAdjust chunking parameters for different types of policy documents

Three Common Misconfigurations

Reference only; verify against the target FastGPT release and deployment documentation.

  • Phenomenon: When connecting the minerU document parsing tool, no parsing process is triggered after uploading a file. Cause: The minerU parsing plugin was not enabled in the system plugin management, and the correct API access key and callback address were not configured.
  • Phenomenon: Uploaded policy documents are split into scattered character blocks, and clause hierarchies cannot be retained. Cause: The chunkSplitter setting for chunking by title + paragraph was not enabled, and default character-based chunking was used, which destroys clause associations.

How to Verify Correct Configuration

  • Upload a telecommunications engineering policy PDF containing scanned pages, check if the parsing result fully extracts the scanned text to confirm that the customPdfParse configuration takes effect.
  • Adjust chunkSize to 800 characters and 1200 characters, upload the same policy document separately, compare the chunking results to confirm that the chunking length meets expectations.
  • Check the parsing logs in the system backend to confirm that no timeout error was triggered for the uploaded large policy compilation file, and that the PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS setting is reasonable.
  • Check the running status of the minerU parsing plugin on the plugin management page, confirm that the plugin has been properly connected, and that the parsing process can be triggered after uploading a test file.
