pretty_name: JFK declassified documents March 2025 raw
On March 18th 2025, 2182 previously classified documents related to the investigation the assassination of President John F. Kennedy were made public at https://www.archives.gov/research/jfk/release-2025
This dataset contains the OCR-ed versions of those PDF files. I have used the pdf2image library with DPI set to 250 followed by the tesseract OCR library to generate an intermediary .txt file from each document.
The documents are aged and the quality of the OCR-ed text reflects that. The file jfk_2025_raw.parquet contains the direct output of the OCR process. You may be more interested in the dataset zlatinb/jfk-2025-cleaned.
