Data

Introduction to the provided datasets.

heiData

The datasets will be stored on heiData which also provides a DOI.

Here is an example dataset: doi:10.11588/data/TKCFEF

One way to download this dataset is to go to the link, click "Access Dataset", then "Download ZIP".

However if you are then going to use the data from a Python script or jupyter notebook then consider using the Pooch library instead.

Pooch

Pooch is a Python library for downloading datasets, and it has native support for heiData. To install:

pip install pooch
conda install pooch

To download the example dataset from heiData using Pooch:

from pooch import DOIDownloader

downloader = DOIDownloader()
downloader("doi:10.11588/data/TKCFEF/tiny-data.txt", output_file="tiny_data.txt", pooch=None)
