We often get requests to publish public research data, and we’ve compiled a listing of some places where one can do that.
Research Data services also has a good overview of many options available – https://researchdata.wisc.edu/
and here’s a short list of some sites –
On Campus –
WiscWeb (which also hosts websites) – https://wiscweb.wisc.edu
Google Drive – https://drive.google.com
Minds@UW – https://www.library.wisc.edu/digital-library-services/minds/
Beyond the UW-
Galaxy – Maximum size limit is 50 GB (uncompressed). 250 GB of storage is available per Galaxy account. – https://usegalaxy.org/
CyVerse Discovery Environment – 5 GB of space for free, but can be relatively slow to display. Offers a paid subscription service to expand space. https://de.cyverse.org/de/
Github – files limited to 100MB, but very fast. https://github.com/
Figshare – not limited and fast, but every file needs to be uploaded individually and cannot be changed. Optimal for very stable links, e.g. in publications. https://figshare.com/
UW is a member of the open data publishing platform, Dryad –
