Using the OSDF

The OSDF provides the foundational data delivery infrastructure using software provided by the Pelican Platform. Communities using the OSDF build infrastructure, such as indexing, tools, or data discovery, on top of this foundation. The OSDF can be used to download data via the browser, visualization in a notebook, or as part of large-scale computational workflows:
