The GWDataFind service allows users to query for the location of Gravitational-Wave Frame (GWF) files containing data from the current gravitational-wave detectors.
Installation
The simplest installation is via pip
:
python -m pip install gwdatafind
This package is also available as a Conda package:

Basic Usage
To find the URLs of all H1_R

To utillise connection pooling, create a Session
:
>>> from gwdatafind import (find_urls, Session)
>>> with Session() as sess:
... for ifo in ("H", "L"):
... urls[ifo] = find_urls(
... ifo,
... f"{ifo}1_R",
... 1198800018,
... 1198800618,
... session=sess,
... )
