This chapter explores the availability and accessibility of open-access neuroimaging datasets. It describes how to download datasets using command-line tools (e.g., wget, curl), data management tools such as Datalad, Amazon Web Services (i.e., AWS CLI), and graphical user interface options (e.g. CyberDuck). The chapter emphasizes the importance of accessibility and of documentation for improved research reproducibility. After reading this chapter, researchers will be equipped with the knowledge and tools to download large neuroimaging datasets, including those utilized in this book. We also demonstrate how to download data from OpenNeuro for a range of operating systems.
