This is a full CSV of scans, taken using the Nix Spectro 2 colour scanner, of every unique chip in the Munsell book. Each chip was scanned five times to account for differences in each reading. This was done as a part of my Master thesis in streamlining the use of the Munsell in archaeology.

Steps to reproduce
Each chip was scanned five time in a row without moving the device so that each scan could be taken under identical conditions. There was a piece of black card that the back of each page, as the 5mm aperture overlapped the hole of the page. The database names and codes were filled in by hand.
