German, Spanish?

I talked with a Baron owner today, he mentioned that his aircraft was at one time operating in Germany and that a portion of his logs were in German. I wondered if this would be a problem for the Google AI we’re depending on for our OCR capabilities at LogAir.ai. As I suspected, the Google Documentation API which does the original OCR of maintenance logs, recognizes Germain as well as Spanish, and about 130 other languages.

So while we haven’t converted any foreign language logs, it should be entirely possible to do this and print them in English with a simple command.

We’ll let you know how this goes.
