A number of grids have been created by various users that are available for use in MUSICAv0. We plan to create a publicly available repository of these grids. Until that is available, please contact the developer of the grid to obtain the necessary files. The grid resolutions (e.g., ne30x{N}) are defined at the bottom of this page.

SE refined grid definitions
Refined resolution is the base grid resolution divided by 2^(refinement level)
