SILPH is a PostgreSQL database cluster running on a Microsoft Azure Flexible Server instance. The data within SILPH comes from and is accessible by large interdisciplinary teams at Iowa State University and partner organizations. Members of those teams that are Iowa State users can request access at silph@iastate.edu. Once authorized, users connected to the ISU VPN can make direct connections using PGadmin, DBeaver, R, Python, ArcGIS, QGIS, and many other programs. Team members that do not have access to the ISU VPN or do not wish to make a direct connection can access the data through our GitHub Team page after requesting access at silph@iastate.edu. Other arrangements for data access are also possible.
