  <p>Have you checked on <a href="https://wormbase.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">WormBase</a>? That's the main repository for c. elegans data. I don't know that they have connectome data, but if they exist, that's where they will be stored.</p>

  I found that there are a couple of projects that allow the user to simulate the neural system of *C elegans*, for example OpenWorm one update being [here](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6158223/).
  
  I don't know how to navigate sources in bioinformatics and thus struggle to evaluate their quality.
  
  **Question** Are there any fundamental / most widely accepted data sources for raw data of C Elegans connectome or electron microscope scans of this organism, similar to Human Genome Project? If not, what are the ways to derive the data?

  Have you checked on [WormBase](https://wormbase.org/)? That's the main repository for c. elegans data. I don't know that they have connectome data, but if they exist, that's where they will be stored.
