Uploading Data
Process of how to Upload Data Files
Uploading data is a two step process.
Curate the relevant metadata surrounding data files that want to be shared (time consuming)
Example of relevant metadata: Patient ID, Tissue Name, Timepoint, Treatment of Tissue, DNA Library Prep, Type of Sequencing/Sequencer, etc.
Work with the Data Management Team (fairdata@mit.edu) to achieve this
Our goal is to avoid creating a data swamp where files are stored without additional annotation.
Run the sftp command with your provided credentials to upload the data files to our system
Following submission, reach out to Charlie letting him know that data has been uploaded to staging
Once data has been depositing via sftp, and metadata has been uploaded to SEEK, it will be available for download (See Downloading Data page)
