As the purpose of this paper is not only to present the standardisation effort, but also to initiate the dissemination of the MAGIC standardised data, we make all the Crab Nebula DL3 data used in this article publicly available both via the MAGIC data centre at PIC (https://opendata.magic.pic.es/, under “MAGIC DL3 Public Data Release 1”) and via zenodo (MAGIC Collaboration, 2024) (https://zenodo.org/records/11108473). Differently than previous releases of DL3 data (e.g. Nigro et al., 2019), we release the Crab Nebula data sets with a permissive license (Creative Commons Attribution, CC BY, https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/) that allows for their usage for scientific investigations.
