Data are stored in blob storage in the West Europe Azure region, in the following folder:
https://cpdataeuwest.blob.core.windows.net/cpdata/raw/fia
Data are stored in Parquet format. Within the above folder, data are organized according to:

We also provide an API to get read-only SAS (shared access signature) tokens to allow access via, e.g., BlobFuse, which allows you to mount blob containers as drives:

API documentation is at https://planetarycomputer.microsoft.com/api/sas/v1/docs.
Mounting instructions for Linux are here.
Large-scale processing is best performed in the West Europe Azure data center, where the data are
