The ASU Research Data Repository (powered by Harvard's Dataverse platform) is ideal for depositing and sharing research data and supports a variety of research data types and formats. You are welcome to upload research data, supplementary tables, documentation, publications associated with data, presentations, etc.

The Repository supports the uploading of any file type, including shapefiles, images, Flexible Image Transport System files, and compressed files. However, to make use of the Data Explorer feature, you need to upload tabular data files (e.g., Stata, SPSS, R, Excel (xlsx), and CSV).

Some files will generate an archival file format for viewing within the repository, but users will have the option to download either the original or archival version.

See the Dataverse Platform User Guide for more information.
