Field notes
The navigation separates voyages from moments, whales, dates, and places, offering several ways into the material. The described voyage view pairs a ship’s daily track with encounters and a source view; the page labels its log text as machine transcription of the original. The excerpt does not establish how many voyages are available or whether the transcriptions have been reviewed.
