Distribute Data Dumps

Dumps of the data submitted to Distribute are now available. Each dump contains two parts. The first part is a simple CSV file with one row per value and a column for each stratifier. The second part is the raw SQL records from the Distribute database. The database schema and relevant metadata are also included in the SQL portion.

The dump files are being hosted on https://isds-auth.cirg.washington.edu/. I can provide links to each dump file via email.

PHENIX link

The PHENIX site has a bit more information on terms of participation, etc., speicifically for Distribute participants:  https://sites.google.com/site/pheguild/home

We won't move data directly from Distribute to PHENIX, but you can send us your Distribute Archive download files and we can import them directly into PHENIX, if you wish to participate in that project, either now or later.

The Distribute data feeds can also be set up easily to send data to PHENIX, if you would like to continue to use the same mechanism.  Info from Bill (lober@uw.edu)
