No doubt the more recent iris check lists published by the AIS are already
in electronic form.  Exactly what form I don't know.  The earlier checklists
(pre-computer era) would have to be scanned, but there are machines to do that.

Still, there would be some computer work to massage the information into the
correct form for whatever database uses it.  A lot of work, but not impossible.
