download_aop_files#

neonutilities.api.download_aop_files(data_product_id, site, year=None, download_folder='./data', poly=None, download_all=False)[source]#

Get NEON aerial observation platform (AOP) data.

Parameters:

  • data_product_id (str) – The data product code (eg. ‘DP1.30003.001’ - Discrete Lidar)

  • site (str) – the 4-digit NEON site code (eg. ‘HARV’, ‘WERF’)

  • year (str, optional) – Year (eg. ‘2020’); default (None) is all years

  • download_folder (str, optional) – Folder to store downloaded files; default (./data) in current directory

  • poly (str or GeoDataFrame, optional) – Area of interest to filter through AOP tiles (shapefile or geodataframe); default None (polygon needs to be in proper UTM for site!)

Notes

Currently, spatial subsetting only works on mosaiced files. This generally refers to discrete return lidar and level 3 spectrometer products.
