DESCRIPTION

i.asf.download for search and download of products available from Alaska Satellite Facility (ASF) https://asf.alaska.edu/. The module supports parallel downloads using the nprocs option which defines the maximum number of parallel processes.

Users can only use a limited set of query parameters from the underlying API. The rest will be implemented when needed. The following filter parameters are so far supported:

Platform

In the platform option, users can choose which product types to download.

Sentinel-1

BeamMode

In the beamMode option, users can choose which product types to download. Currently only IW is supported.

Processinglevel

In the processinglevel option, users can choose which product types to download. Currently supported are:

GRD_HD
SLC

EXAMPLES

List scenes matching geo-search

i.asf.download --v -l start="2020-12-01" end="2020-12-14" \
    aoi=./aoi.geojson

Parallel download with token file

# Skip existing files
    i.asf.download --v -s start="2020-12-01" end="2020-12-14" \
    output_directory=./ token=./asf.token nprocs=5

Parallel download with checksum / modification time test

export ASF_TOKEN=my_long_and_complicated_token_string
i.asf.download --v -s start="2020-12-01" end="2020-12-14" \
    output_directory=./ nprocs=5 check_scenes=all
