Collection of documents, data, and images generated from and/or related to archaeological resource and investigations on the Luke Air Force Base in Arizona. The collection was created by tDAR under contract with the USAF and is intended to organize documents, images, and other data from the Luke Air Force Base. Some of the digital resources are organized under several sub-collections, which group together documents from particular investigations or related to certain sites or parts of the base. Other digital objects are included individually. Due to the potential sensitive information included in these documents, users that wish to access documents and images without redaction should contact the cultural resources office at the Luke Air Force Base.
