- Its standards say every number is sourced, dated, and listed with each film, and simulations are labeled and checked against observed outcomes.
Field notes
The homepage pairs the film with a compact evidence panel: two route lengths, a dated measurement of the step, and the Atchafalaya’s reported share for 2008–2010. Its standards page describes a source list for every number and public corrections on the relevant film page. The index currently lists one completed film and identifies the next place only as in production.
