LUX Light Archive
Archive overview
Working holdings and currently published records are shown separately so review scale is never confused with public availability.
Archive holdings / working catalogue
These populations overlap: a lighthouse site and its Chance lens remain distinct records and must not be added as unique lighthouse sites.
574Working lighthouse/site records
Migrated and canonical catalogue records; not all have completed publication review.738Working heritage assets
Object and component records across draft, reviewed, and accepted states.620Chance Brothers candidates
Mostly lens and lantern candidates; this is not a count of additional lighthouse sites.580External CHT records
Verified partner snapshot used for reconciliation, not automatically imported LUX truth.
Currently published
The publish package recalculates these counts after lifecycle, route, and media-safety filtering. Reviewed and featured records carry stronger trust labels; legacy compatibility is not approval.
