At the customer's request, digital wireline data can be transmitted from the logging truck's computer directly to (1) the client, (2) other partners, and/or (3) the logging company's main computer for immediate processing, retransmission, or rerecording for delivery to the client. When digital data are read into a computer by a LAP, they are automatically converted to the LAP's internal data format for storage and use.

Traceplots can be converted to digital data through manual digitizing or optical scanning. Most LAPs include log digitizing software. Many commercial data firms also sell digitizing services and may even have digital libraries for sale. Numerical listings include core and geochemical data. Both are usually sampled somewhat sporadically and thus have varying sample increments. Text information includes descriptions, explanations, formation tops, and test results. This information is extremely useful when annotating graphics. Both numerical listings and text information are well suited for keyboard entry into the database.

Frequency nodes in a trace's data values (''x''<sub>1</sub>, and ''x''<sub>2</sub>) within a given formation are related to geology. Node values are usually consistent and mappable for that interval if observed in multiple wells in an area. If node values are atypical for a given well due to tool miscalibration, a correct distribution and range can be determined and the trace normalized.]]
