Hi, I enjoyed this package so much in the past. It was so easy to get new Landsat data for my sites. Now the functions changed and when I use order_data(), it requests each remote sensing product separately. I now have 300+ emails (and counting) in my email account from ESPA. Previously getLandsat_data() was great, it downloaded everything as a list and I just got one email. This is extremely inconvenient. Why did this change and could you change that back to the old version? Or am I just missing something? I read through the

Thank you, Susanne

I'm unable to download anything anymore. When I try order_data, I'm getting this error: Column 'download_available' not present, calling check_availabilty() to check download availability of records... Error in .get(paste0(getOption("gSD.api")$espa, "/order/", x), getOption("gSD.usgs_user"), : Internal Server Error (HTTP 500). Failed to process request.

When I try: records <- check_availability(records) I'm getting this error: Checking availability for Landsat records... Investigating matching ESPA orders in the past... Error in .get(paste0(getOption("gSD.api")$espa, "/order/", x), getOption("gSD.usgs_user"), : Internal Server Error (HTTP 500). Failed to process request.

services() gives all services running. I'm logged in successfully. All other functions from the example worked.

This was such a great and easy to use package. Why did it change :(

Thanks! Susi

This package produce many errors , moving to sen2r package much more efficient

Id like to revisit this issue. I have also used getSpatialData in the past quite successfully. Now with the switch to AWS I find that:

Landsat surface reflectance (L2) are not available at all
Images newer than 1 year are not yet available
Image from older programs (Landsat 5 ETM) are also not available (all above are available thru the earthexplorer.usgs.gov site)

This puts a serious limitation on the use of the otherwise excellent package. Is there any way to just disable AWS, and download directly from USGS?
