Okay, after reading through the documentation about getting NAIP world imagery, it seems to be that you have to be a customer in order to access the images / data? Do we have an account or anything? Thanks. @sdc50

There used to be multiple places you can get the NAIP data.

After attending the IEMS conference, it seems like Google Earth Engine would be the best provider for getting this type of data. Thoughts? Thanks

@AaronV77 I think GEE is definitely worth checking out. The presenter said that if you are downloading the data then you are doing it wrong, but I think for some use cases it might be worth it. Do you want to start experimenting with the API and see what it would take to download data?

AaronV77 commented 5 years ago

@sdc50 I would love to start digging into the GEE API but I don't see myself really getting to this until possibly after the FY, that is if we actually start writing up all the documentation that we promised. Thanks

sdc50 commented 5 years ago

@AaronV77 agreed.
