Notification or charateristic to send data from Beacon to PC

For my project to simulate the spreading of a disease I am thinking of recording the complete social network on the beacons and then collecting the data to a pc. I have roughly 2kB available to store the data which should be enough for ~2 days of logging.

Once I have the data on the PC in any form I will process it using Matlab script. I am unsure which way is best to send the data to the PC. Currently I see two options, either notifications or values of a characteristic (4 in fact as 512 B is max). I am planning on the recording the data using the MCP and the nrf51 DK.

What way would you suggest is best (and easiest) for my purpose?
