MNE-somato-data-bids (anonymized)

This dataset contains somatosensory MEG recordings converted to BIDS format, including raw MEG data, anatomical MRI scans, and FreeSurfer-derived structural derivatives. The dataset includes forward models and boundary element models computed using MNE-BIDS, providing a complete neuroimaging resource for studying somatosensory processing and demonstrating MEG-MRI integration workflows.

Pick a method. Large datasets skip the zip and use the streaming methods below — all resumable. Full download guide →

Download archive (.zip) — 0.3 GB
A single zip of the published version. Best for small/medium datasets.

Download zip
NEMAR CLI recommended
Pulls the pinned version + annexed data and resumes cleanly. Install nemar-cli →
```
nemar dataset download on003104
```

DataLad

Clone the dataset repo and fetch file content on demand. Docs →

datalad clone https://github.com/nemarDatasets/on003104 on003104
cd on003104 && datalad get .

git-annex

Plain git + git-annex against the dataset repo. Docs →

git clone https://github.com/nemarDatasets/on003104 on003104
cd on003104 && git annex get .

Direct files (wget / curl / rclone)
Every file with a stable, range-resumable URL from the manifest. Needs curl, jq, wget (or rclone/aria2c). Docs →
```
curl -s https://data.nemar.org/on003104/v1.0.0/manifest.json | jq -r '.[].bytes_url' > urls.txt
wget -xc -i urls.txt
```

Compute on this dataset

Two routes today, with a third (in-browser one-click submission) landing soon.

NeuroScience Gateway (NSG) portal.
NSG runs EEGLAB / Brainstorm / MNE pipelines on supercomputing time donated by SDSC. Create an account, point a job at this dataset's S3 prefix (s3://nemar/on003104), and submit.
nsgportal.org →
Local processing with nemar-cli.
Pull the dataset to your machine and run any toolbox locally. Honors the published version pinning.
```
npm install -g nemar-cli
nemar dataset clone on003104
cd on003104 && nemar dataset get
```
Just the files.
rclone, aria2c, or any HTTPS client works against data.nemar.org/on003104/ — the manifest carries presigned S3 URLs.

Direct compute access is coming soon. One-click NSG submission from this page is scoped for a follow-up phase. Tracked on nemarOrg/website#6.

How to download

The dataset: nemar dataset download on003104 Clones and fetches in one step. Content under stimuli/ and derivatives/ is skipped by default because those trees can be large; add --stimuli --derivatives for the whole thing.
A subset, one step: nemar dataset download on003104 --subjects sub-01,02 Also filters by --sessions, --tasks, --runs, --datatypes, --include and --exclude.
A subset, step 1: nemar dataset clone on003104 Clones git-annex pointers only; fetches no file content. Creates ./on003104.
A subset, step 2: cd on003104 The get command below reads the clone's annex, so it only works from inside the clone.
A subset, step 3: nemar dataset get <files> Pulls the files you actually need. Skips stimuli/ and derivatives/ unless the path you ask for is under one of them.
One small file: https://data.nemar.org/on003104/v1.0.0/participants.tsv A direct HTTPS fetch works for any single file.
