ATNF Data Archives

CSIRO provides access to science-ready, fully processed data products from its ASKAP telescope, and unprocessed data taken with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA), Parkes Radio Telescope, Mopra Radio Telescope, and Long Baseline Array (LBA).

The CSIRO Data Access Portal (DAP/CASDA) will take you to all published ASKAP data and pulsar data from Parkes.

CASDA, the CSIRO ASKAP Science Data Archive, is physically separate from the DAP but can be accessed through the above portal.

Data from the ATCA, the LBA, and spectral-line data from Parkes, has traditionally been held in the Australia Telescope Online Archive (ATOA) but this is being progressively merged into CASDA, so that the CSIRO Data Access Portal will in time become the “one stop shop” for all ATNF archival data. In the meantime you may need to check both archives.

Additional processed data products are available from the ATNF Pulsar Catalogue (PSRCAT), and the ATNF HI Surveys Database.

For advice on policies governing data access see ATNF Data Policies.

Getting Help

For all enquiries relating to data access please contact the data support helpdesk by email to ATNF data support. You will receive an automated acknowledgment of your email and an ATNF staff member will respond. We aim to provide an initial response within four business hours (Western Australia timezone).
