The logs are provided in PDF and TIFF formats, with file sizes ranging up to 560 megabytes and an average size of 33 megabytes. Image quality varies considerably, reflecting the condition of the original source materials. Due to the departure of key project staff, limited quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) [...]
