Hi Guys!

I'm getting started with the repository, on the 'downloads' branch just now.
I have created an account with Copernicus.eu. Question: is api_user and api_password just my Copernicus username and password? Tried that, maybe I need to wait fpr "... account creation to propagate". Or do I get a separate api password? Can't easily see how to get that.

Thanks, Ian Poole.

Ok sorted - of course I need an account on scihub.copernicus... All good, downloading as I type :-)

So the download code works well, great that we can download just the patch of interest. However, it would be best if this piece of code did pure download only (no display), and saved the data in a more raw format, as a numpy array (.npz) perhaps (suggested by Murray). This could be a 3D array - x by y by bands, or perhaps a dictionary of 2D arrays, keyed by "Band 1" ... "Band 8A" etc. I feel it makes sense to download all bands and have done with it.
