Access Data From the Facilities
A number of different data products are available from the different facilities. While some of these products are available in near realtime there are others which require additional analysis to produce and are only available in the data archives.
Near Realtime Facility Data
All the facilities maintain realtime data products of various kinds.
Facility Data Archives
Each of the facilities maintains a local data archive and most of these currently use the
http://www.openmadrigal.org Madrigal database system. The data holdings in Madrigal go well beyond the NSF operated facilities with data being available from many other systems in the world.
Community Data Archives
The primary long term community data archive is the
CEDAR database which is operated by UCAR.
