Twitter URL Medium DOI PyPI - License PyPI Downloads

The Application for Extracting and Exploring Analysis Ready Samples (AρρEEARS) offers a simple and efficient way to access and transform geospatial data from a variety of federal data archives. AρρEEARS enables users to subset geospatial datasets using spatial, temporal, and band/layer parameters. Two types of sample requests are available: point samples for geographic coordinates and area samples for spatial areas via vector polygons. Sample requests submitted to AρρEEARS provide users not only with data values but also associated quality data values.

NASA appears API provides endpoints to automate and use this tool in a programmatic environment. This command line tool attempts at creating an implementation of the overall API design.
