STEP 4

Get data

Our preferred methods for getting data are:

• Fastest: Globus. Setting up Globus access is pretty straightforward and is completely free for academics and non-profits. Register for a Globus basic account if your institution doesn’t already have an institutional license. 
• Second fastest: Aria2. Aria2 parallelized download options are particularly helpful for big files or when data transfer rates are slow between your institution and the PNCC archive. 
• Slowest, but most accessible: EMSL User Portal. Log in and select Get Data.
