Summary

The DKIST Data Center Archive (DC) provides calibrated (a.k.a. Level 1, “L1”) data to the community via the User Portal for download. It does not provide access to raw (a.k.a. Level 0, “L0”) data. However, special requests can be made using a request form to the DC for raw data files. If the user has a justified reason to get these raw data, they can make a request to the DC for access. Requests will be reviewed on a case by case basis. It is assumed that a user will already have downloaded the L1 data before requesting the raw data. You are required to specify the dataset IDs from the L1 data that corresponds to the raw data you wish to download. Raw data is not searchable and cannot be filtered by instrument or other similar parameters. If the request is approved, the user will receive ALL the raw data for at least one observing program as executed at the telescope.
