Downloading Data from CanWIN Pages

Downloading Data

Data in the CanWIN Data Catalogue can be downloaded in two ways: as a complete data package or as a single resource. Downloading as a package creates a Fair Digital Object (FDO), ensuring your data is transferable and reproducible.

📦 Data Package

Users can download data as a package on a dataset or project page by:

  1. Clicking the Download package button (see image below).

A zipped folder will be generated containing all resources, along with the data dictionary and metadata in PDF format.

⚠️ Note: Raw data files are not included in the package.

📄 Single Resource

Users can also download individual files or resources by:  

  1. Clicking the Explore button (see image below), and selecting the Download option for the specific file.
  2. Clicking on the resource itself, which also provides a download option.
