# Smithsonian Open Access Data
|
|
|
|
|
|
Pre-processed data dumps from the [Smithsonian Open Access](https://www.si.edu/openaccess) initiative, covering millions of objects across Smithsonian Institution museums and archives.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## What is this?
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Smithsonian publishes their Open Access metadata on S3, but the raw data is split across 255 individual `.txt` files per unit. This dataset consolidates each unit's data into a single `.jsonl.gz` file for easier downloading and processing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Files
