Find what you're looking for. Our Data Discovery Guide can walk you through exploring data with the Foundry-ML SDK, Forge, or on the web.
Collecting data from various services can be challenging. Aggregating data from MDF-indexed datasets takes only a few lines of code!
Every dataset gets its own page on our website with more details and instructions on how to access it. Simply share that link with your colleagues. No further instruction required!
Publishing your data on MDF makes it easy for you to share your work with others. It also helps you reach people within the MDF community via our discovery features. Our discover page includes your data in search queries, so those interested can easily find your work.
Want to check that your data is in a good place before submitting it? Check out What Makes a Good Dataset. We provide a checklist for what you need with an explanation on why it matters.
From kilobytes to terabytes, we can help you make your data available to the world.
When you publish your dataset, receive a permanent identifier (e.g., DOI) to make citing your work simple.
Researchers will be able to find datasets through the MDF services and with Python tools. Dataset contents can be accessed via Globus or web (HTTPS).
That's why we use Globus to easily transfer data to anywhere you want to use it - from a laptop to a supercomputer. Not familiar with Globus? No problem! Our publishing process and data loading page walk you through how to use it. You only need to create a free account to publish your data.
