Hey @jacobbieker, as discussed, I have extended the GOESDownloadManager with 'NOAS' for archival data. Please review when you get time.

Hi, thanks for adding this! I might have misspoke with the archival data that I meant. From CLAss we want to be able to download the GOES-8 to GOES-15 data (available here: https://www.aev.class.noaa.gov/saa/products/search?datatype_family=GVAR_IMG). This might also work for that, but not sure, could you check?

Hey @jacobbieker, Thank you for clarifying the requirements.

I've updated the code to check the provided URL for the availability of GOES-8 to GOES-15 data before proceeding with the download. If the data is found, it will be downloaded for each satellite in the specified range.

Great! Thank you. Have you tested this? And could you add a test for downloading GOES-15 data from CLAss? And have it actually download the file too, as it shouldn't be that large.

Yes, I've tested it locally, and it is working fine. I've also added a unit test for it.

Okay, great! Just closing and reopening to trigger our CI, once these pass, should be almost good to go!

Hi, I'm not sure this actually does what we want unfortunately, it downloads a HTML file, but not the NetCDF file from GOES-15 from CLAss, so we might want to do some more work on this!

Hi @jacobbieker , I am working on it.
