For this package, do you consider satellite data at daily frequency (and higher) withing the scope of the package?

If yes, did you consider more generic names such as SatelliteData.jl or SatelliteDatasets? (both available https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General/tree/master/S)

I have some preliminary function to download MODIS SST and Sentinel 3 SST (maybe the code does work also for other Sentinel data). Maybe they could be integrated into this package, but they have a quite high resolution (not really what I would call satellite data from climate studies).

I do consider satellite data at higher frequency. All the satellite datasets here are of hourly or higher frequency. When I say climate, it means that these satellite datasets are building towards long-term (more than a few decades) in terms of their timespan.

Yes, I would love to integrate these functionalities into ClimateSatellite.jl only problem is I haven't really had much time to work around so far. I need to retest the downloads for GPM late and early near-realtime functionalities cos the ftp was updated as well.
