Country & Time Targeting

Target Country did two jobs already: it supplies the dial code the search looks for, and it is the region numbers are parsed against. It now does a third

• Google is asked to answer as if searching from that country (gl). Turn on Strict country filter to also restrict results to pages Google attributes to it (cr=countryXX); that is much tighter and returns noticeably fewer results.

Result Language restricts results to one language (hl + lr).

Time Range limits results to a publication window - past hour, 24 hours, week, month, year, or an explicit Custom range via Custom range: from / to in YYYY-MM-DD form. Selecting Custom range without either date falls back to no time filter rather than silently searching all of time.

Region resolution

Field	Meaning
regionAmbiguous	true when the number was printed without a country code and the same national digits are valid in more than one country
phoneIsMobile	true/false where the numbering plan can tell, empty where it genuinely cannot (US, Canada, Mexico)
phoneCallingCode	The country's international calling code, as a number
phoneCountryName	Full country name, falling back to the two-letter code rather than guessing

regionAmbiguous is the important one. A number written as 020 7946 0958 is only a UK number because the run targeted the UK - the country shown is a reading, not a fact, and this column tells you which rows those are.
