Welcome to CNGB data access center
Data submitted to CNGBdb (including CNSA and STOmicsDB) can be disclosed in two manners: as public data and as controlled data:
- The public data is licensed under CC-BY-4.0, which allows anyone to freely download and utilize.
- Access to controlled data is granted only upon approval by the data submitter.
After the user submits a data access request, the data submitter will review the request and decide whether to grant permission. Therefore, it is the data submitters, not CNGBdb, who have the authority to approve data access requests. The processing time of request mainly depends on the review time of the data submitter.
