Disclosed systems and methods provide automated log quality monitoring, thereby enabling fast, on-site determination of log quality by logging engineers as well as re-assurance to interpreters faced with geologically-improbable features in the logs. Such uses can provide early detection of logging issues, increase confidence in acquired logs, reduce unnecessary duplication of effort, and improve the reputation of the logging company. In at least some embodiments, log monitoring software applies a comparison function to axially-spaced (and/or azimuthally-spaced) sensors. The comparison function can be, inter alia, cross-correlation, mutual information, mean-square error, and ratio image uniformity, each of which can be determined as a function of a sliding window position to indicate regions wherein the log quality falls below a threshold value. It is not necessary for the log sensors to be of the same type, e.g., resistivity image sensors.
