Using the menus
When you're first getting started with Passport, navigating through the menus can help you get a sense of what is covered by this database and what isn't -- because there are some gaps. To explore an industry, start by clicking on "Industries" right below the main search bar at the top of the screen. This will reveal a secondary menu with types of Industries. You can continue to browse down to what's available.
Once you hit the bottom menu level, you'll see a dashboard with a bunch of information on that topic. At this point, you can make your search more granular by using the "Explore Analysis" block on the upper left of the screen. Choose the type of analysis you want (best to just click "All"), then the subcategory you're interested in, and finally the geography.
Keyword searching
If navigating menus is not your thing, you can also enter a keyword search. Once you enter a word or two, you'll see your search results presented in a panel, with options for Statistics, Analyses, and Dashboards. "Analysis" is usually the most comprehensive, but the other categories can be useful as well.
