SHARING LARGE DATA SETS BY FTP
A 1 Tb FTP disk has been setup to allow the enviroGRIDS partners to share their
relevant data sets (upload and download).
A direct access to the data sets with the help of this URL:
https://netstorage.unige.ch/netstorage/
To connect to this disk, you have to request a Username and a Password to Gregory
Giuliani (gregory.giuliani@grid.unep.ch).
Once you are connected, you can access the data through the DriveM@enviroGRIDS.
Then, we organized the data according to the structure of the project WP.
The netstorage interface
On this netstorage space, you can download but also create directories, upload data,
etc… We hope you will find it useful and we encourage the partners to share their data
through this tool. If you have questions, do not hesitate to contact Gregory Giuliani
(gregory.giuliani@grid.unep.ch).
