Abstract
The global network of gravitational-wave observatories now includes five detectors, namely LIGO Hanford, LIGO Livingston, Virgo, KAGRA, and GEO 600. These detectors collected data during their third observing run, O3, composed of three phases: O3a starting in 2019 April and lasting six months, O3b starting in 2019 November and lasting five months, and O3GK starting in 2020 April and lasting two weeks. In this paper we describe these data and various other science products that can be freely accessed through the Gravitational Wave Open Science Center at https://gwosc.org. The main data set, consisting of the gravitational-wave strain time series that contains the astrophysical signals, is released together with supporting data useful for their analysis and documentation, tutorials, as well as analysis software packages.

N1 - Funding Information: Calibration of the LIGO strain data was performed with a GstLAL-based calibration software pipeline (Viets et al. 2018). Calibration of the Virgo strain data was performed with C-based software (Acernese et al. 2022b). Data quality products and event-validation results were computed using the DMT (https://labcit.ligo.caltech.edu/~jzweizig/DMT-Project. html), DQR (https://docs.ligo.org/detchar/data-quality-report/), DQSEGDB (Fisher et al. 2021), gwdetchar (Macloed et al. 2021a), hveto (Smith et al. 2011), iDQ (Essick et al. 2020), and Omicron (Robinet et al. 2020) software packages and contributing software tools. Analyses relied upon the LALSuite software library (LIGO Scientific Collaboration 2018). PESummary was used to postprocess and collate parameter estimation results (Hoy & Raymond 2021). For an exhaustive list of the software used for searching the GW signals and characterizing their source, see Abbott et al. (2021c). Plots were prepared with Matplotlib (Hunter 2007), seaborn (Waskom 2021), GWSumm (Macleod et al. 2021b), and GWpy (Macleod et al. 2021c). NumPy (Harris et al. 2020) and SciPy (Virtanen et al. 2020) were used in the preparation of the manuscript.
