Or more to the point, WNV infections in Louisiana in August with WNV infections in Minnesota in July. Or something meteorological like that.

Discussion:
For me, a CROSS SEARCH would be where the Louisiana Disease Database, when interrogated about WNV infections in July, can connect to the Minnesota Disease Database for data for the same period.

True, a comparative search (in a national database) would involve multiple criteria, e.g. WNV INFECTION in JULY in LOUISIANA and MINNESOTA (1 disease, 1 month, 2 states)

But a REAL multicriteria search would involve more, e.g. WNV INFECTION in JULY in LOUISIANA and in AUGUST in MINNESOTA, i.e. a variation in criteria (1 disease, 2 states, and two different months, a different month for each state), or
WNV INFECTION in JULY in LOUISIANA and cases of MALARIA in AUGUST in MINNESOTA, i.e. a variation in criteria (2 diseases in 2 different months in 2 different states), etc. This also provides data for comparative purposes, but the data is not comparably comparable!

Explanation:
Enfin, il faut reconnaître que, de plus en plus, l'utilisateur s'attendra à ce que le contenu soit disponible en ligne lorsqu'il en a besoin. Le contenu numérique, original ou converti, est la réalité du XXIe siècle. Notre défi sera d'en fournir suffisamment, d'assurer qu'il demeure accessible avec le temps et d'éviter la multiplication des bases de données et des sites Web isolés et insuffisamment reliés pour permettre les recherches croisées.

Lastly, we must recognize that increasingly the user wants-indeed, expects-content to be available to them online when they seek it. Digital content, whether "born digital" or converted, is the 21st century reality. Our challenges will be to provide enough of it, to keep it accessible over time, and to find ways to ensure that digital content is not in silos of diverse Websites and databases that are not sufficiently cross-searchable and linked.

neutral  Cetacea: Problem is, comparative searches are multi-criteria searches as well. These are simply cross searches, see e.g. http://goliath.ecnext.com/coms2/gi_0199-2682818/Energy-Polys...
