Technical Challenges

Several problematic issues fall within the scope of this project:

  • Inconsistent formatting of U.S. Code.
  • Varying cross-reference identifiers.
  • Sheer size of the data set (~250 megabytes).
  • Accuracy of translation.

In order to create a useful set of XML source files, all of these hurdles must be overcome.
