# OCR demo: Food for Space Flight
|
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
+
Seven scanned pages from NASA's *Food for Space Flight* booklet, with headings,
|
| 23 |
+
columns, photographs, food lists and tables. This small dataset is an input for
|
| 24 |
+
trying OCR recipes and inspecting their results.
|
| 25 |
+
|
| 26 |
+
The images are PDF pages **3-9** (printed pages **2-8**) of the original booklet.
|
| 27 |
+
The selection omits the reproduction disclaimer and dark cover. The complete
|
| 28 |
+
original PDF and a matching seven-page extract are in the
|
| 29 |
+
[OCR demo Bucket](https://huggingface.co/buckets/uv-scripts/ocr-demo).
|
| 30 |
+
|
| 31 |
+
## Use as a dataset
|
| 32 |
+
|
| 33 |
+
```python
|
| 34 |
+
from datasets import load_dataset
|
| 35 |
+
|
| 36 |
+
pages = load_dataset("uv-scripts/ocr-demo", split="train")
|
| 37 |
+
```
|
| 38 |
+
|
| 39 |
+
There are seven rows in the `train` split:
|
| 40 |
+
|
| 41 |
+
| Column | Meaning |
|
| 42 |
+
|---|---|
|
| 43 |
+
| `image` | Page image, rendered at 300 DPI and saved as JPEG at quality 85. |
|
| 44 |
+
| `page_id` | Stable ID containing the original PDF page number. |
|
| 45 |
+
| `source_page` | One-based page number in the original PDF. |
|
| 46 |
+
| `printed_page` | Page number printed on the scanned page. |
|
| 47 |
+
| `source` | NASA's source-record URL. |
|
| 48 |
+
|
| 49 |
+
The images use the [ImageFolder format](https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/en/image_dataset).
|
| 50 |
+
`pages/metadata.jsonl` associates each image with its source-page information.
|
| 51 |
+
There is no verified ground-truth transcription in this dataset.
|
| 52 |
+
|
| 53 |
+
## PDF and file inputs
|
| 54 |
+
|
| 55 |
+
The [OCR demo Bucket](https://huggingface.co/buckets/uv-scripts/ocr-demo) contains:
|
| 56 |
+
|
| 57 |
+
- `original/food-for-space-flight.pdf`: the unmodified nine-page NASA PDF.
|
| 58 |
+
- `demo/food-for-space-flight.pdf`: a seven-page extract matching the dataset rows.
|
| 59 |
+
- `pages/`: the same seven page images and metadata.
|
| 60 |
+
|
| 61 |
+
Use one prefix, such as `hf://buckets/uv-scripts/ocr-demo/demo`, as your input to
|
| 62 |
+
avoid processing both a PDF and its page images.
|
| 63 |
|
| 64 |

NASA's document record states **Work of the US Gov. Public Use Permitted**.
|
| 71 |
+
The source pages retain that status; the repository's code license does not
|
| 72 |
+
relicense the NASA document. See [NASA's usage guidance](https://www.nasa.gov/nasa-brand-center/images-and-media/).
|
| 73 |
+
Attribute these source pages to NASA and identify any generated transcription as
|
| 74 |
+
model output. NASA does not endorse this demo or verify its OCR results.
|
| 75 |
+
|
| 76 |
+
The archival scan has damaged lettering and an imperfect existing OCR layer.
|
| 77 |
+
Inspect generated text against the page images, especially tables and captions.
|
| 78 |
+
|
| 79 |
+
## Preparation
|
| 80 |
+
|
| 81 |
+
Pages 3-9 were rendered from the original PDF with Poppler's `pdftoppm` at
|
| 82 |
+
300 DPI and saved as JPEG at quality 85. No OCR model was run during preparation.
|
| 83 |
+
The Bucket's `manifest.json` records source URLs, file checksums and rendering settings.
