Data Policy
To promote the reproducibility of research and the creation of citable, high-quality data products, this platform is committed to providing open access to all published datasets. Open access ensures that scientific findings can be independently validated and that the data can support secondary studies across a range of disciplines. By enabling seamless access to these datasets, this platform aims to advance transparency, collaboration, and innovation in research.
This page serves as a repository for accessing published data. Below, you will find datasets and information about their usage, along with proper citation guidelines. For additional insights on the importance of open data, explore the following resources: Science | Washington Post | Youtube.

2. East Africa’s Layering Imaged with CRISP-RF
We present a dataset of Ps receiver functions for the East African Region. The compilation regroups all high-quality images of crustal and upper mantle discontinuities, resolved using the CRISP-RF denoising approach at 1 Hz. The current release is organized in a table of 17 columns, with the following headers:
