Loading document OCR tools… (requires login and the OCR review service).

Site-wide inbox for document OCR. Upload a scan, confirm who it is and what will change, then Apply.

How it works

  1. Log in (same as photo uploads).
  2. Upload a document. OCR runs on the server; nothing is written yet.
  3. Confirm — for one soldier, check the proposed page changes; for a roster, match each person (search by name/ASN), Include the ones to update.
  4. Read What will change, then Apply selected (requires ocr-reviewer or admin). Discard drops the job.
  5. Expert options (raw OCR text, document type, gallery, overwrite) are under Advanced.

Profile shortcut: soldier page → Gallery → OCR a document (pre-selects that soldier).

Privacy

  • Do not upload Social Security numbers or private contact details for living people.
  • Staging files are not published until Apply (Gallery attach is optional; off by default for multi-person uploads).
  • See About the data and Contribute.

For reviewers

Administrators can grant the ocr-reviewer group. Other logged-in uploads stay in the queue until a reviewer applies or discards them.
