About MyTardis
MyTardis began at Monash University to solve the problem of users needing to store large datasets and share them with collaborators online. Its particular focus is on integration with scientific instruments, instrument facilities and research storage and computing infrastructure; to address the challenges of data storage, data access, collaboration and data publication.
It is currently being used to capture data from areas such as protein crystallography, neutron and X-ray scattering, optical microscopy, electron microscopy, medical imaging, flow cytometry, genomics and proteomics through deployments at Australian institutions such as Monash University, University of Queensland, RMIT, Australian Synchrotron and Australian Nuclear Sciences and Technology Organisation (ANSTO). The Australian Synchrotron deployment alone has captured over 80 terabytes and 130,000 datasets; archiving and providing data access and sharing tools to its community.
