Hi Chris,

When I try to download data I get this mesage:

Error in utils::download.file(url = ntLtsIndexUrlVIIRS, destfile = ntLtsPageLocalName, : cannot open URL 'https://eogdata.mines.edu/download_dnb_composites_iframe.html'

When I try to open the url in chrome it doesn´t load.

Hi Natxo,

Maybe this was a temporary problem? I am able to access the page both manually and from the package. See below though 201909 is not found on the page.

> a <- Rnightlights::getCtryNlData("KEN", "adm0", "VIIRS.M", "201909", "sum")
Processing missing data: KEN:VIIRS.M:VCMCFG:201909:sum. This may take a while. 
Note: Set 'ignoreMissing=TRUE' to return only data found or 
'ignoreMissing=NULL' to return NULL if not all the data is found
