This website doesn't seem to handle PNGs well, but here is the digitisation I did in isolation.
There's two proper transparent versions over on Twitter if anyone needs them.

And NZ history, this hasn't got a lot of attention but there have been numerous cuts to archives, grants, digitisation projects etc, on top of replacing a brand new schools curriculum with an AI slop version of the pre-80s-revision one. It's bleak 😭

Data biases. Were most of the ships sailing the Med keeping log books, have they survived, and were they selected for digitisation?
Note especially the bias introduced by the use of only 4 (European) countries. Not an issue if you are into global weather patterns. For trade patterns, definitely is.

I think conflating digitisation with preservation is actually a huge problem. Digitisation is great for access, at least while the project that digitised the material is active, but digitised collections accumulate technical debt and require constant management and updating.
