3. How to get an MDAS user account

In order to use MDAS, you must submit an application. By applying, your MDAS account will be issued and you will be able to log-in to the interactive data analysis servers.

If a user's PC is on the NAOJ network, then the user can access an interactive data analysis server directly with SSH connection. In contrast, if a user's PC is not on the NAOJ network, the user must establish a Virtual Private Network (VPN) connection in advance. ADC also offers VPN service for MDAS, please submit an application for the VPN service if necessary.

MDAS provides group ID service. If you share data with other users, please submit an application for the group ID service.
