@ -20,6 +20,41 @@ Immich doesn't have the mechanism to sync an existing directory with the server.
The initial approach of Immich is to become a backup tool, primarily for mobile device usage. Thus, all the assets must be uploaded from the mobile client. The app was architectured to perform that job well.
### What happens to existing files after I choose a new [Storage Template](/docs/features/storage-template.mdx)?
Template changes will only apply to new assets. To retroactively apply the template to previously uploaded assets, run the Storage Migration Job, available on the [Jobs](/docs/features/jobs.md) page.
### Why is object detection not very good?
The model we used for machine learning is a prebuilt model, so the accuracy is not very good. It will hopefully be replaced with a better solution in the future.
### How can I see Immich logs?
Most Immich components are typically deployed using docker. To see logs for deployed docker containers, you can use the [Docker CLI](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/cli/), specifically the `docker logs` command. For examples, see [Docker Help](/docs/guides/docker-help.md)
### How can I run Immich as a non-root user?
1. Set the `PUID`/`PGID` environment variables (in `.env`).
2. Set the corresponding `user` argument in `docker-compose` for each service.
3. Add an additional volume to `immich-microservices` that mounts internally to `/usr/src/app/.reverse-geocoding-dump`.
The non-root user/group needs will need read/write access to the volume mounts, including `UPLOAD_LOCATION`.
### How can I reset the admin password?
The admin password can be reset by running the [reset-admin-password](/docs/features/server-commands.md) command on the immich-server.
### How can I **purge** data from Immich?
Data for Immich comes in two forms:
1. **Metadata** stored in a postgres database, persisted via the `pg_data` volume
2. **Files** (originals, thumbs, profile, etc.), stored in the `UPLOAD_LOCATION` folder.
To remove the **Metadata** you can stop Immich and delete the volume.
```bash title="Remove Immich (containers and volumes)"
docker-compose down -v
```
After removing the the containers and volumes, the **Files** can be cleaned up (if necessary) from the `UPLOAD_LOCATION` by simply deleting an unwanted files or folders.

# Jobs
Several Immich functionalities are implemented as jobs, which run in the background. To view the status of a job navigate to the Administration Screen, and then the `Jobs` page.

# Reverse Geocoding
Immich supports [Reverse Geocoding](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_geocoding) using data from the [GeoNames](https://www.geonames.org/) geographical database.
## Extraction
During Exif Extraction, assets with latitudes and longitudes are reverse geocoded to determine their City, State, and Country.
## Usage
Data from a reverse geocode is displayed in the image details, and used in [Search](/docs/features/search.md).
<img src={require('./img/reverse-geocoding-mobile1.png').default} width='33%' title='Reverse Geocoding' />
