The Sand Atlas presents 3D models of particles and invites contributors to share additional two- or three-dimensional data.
EMDataResource
EMDataResource archives and retrieves three-dimensional electron microscopy structures, with data standards, validation methods, and related tools.

About EMDataResource
EMDataResource is a global resource for archiving and retrieving three-dimensional electron microscopy (3DEM) structure data. It indexes EMDB map entries and PDB coordinate entries, and brings together news, events, software tools, data standards, validation methods, and community challenges. The homepage showed 62,962 EMDB map entries and 37,461 PDB coordinate entries alongside a date stamp of 2026-10-07, so these counts reflect that snapshot.
