Input data provenance

@ellenbuckley I'm thinking there is a programmatic way to get the input data. Were these files fetched with a tool like fetchdata or some other tool?

they were fetched with requests.get() and an input url. I'm sure there is a better way to do this. And after implementing new cloud mask, it can just use the files fetched from the fetchdata script.

and maybe the fetchdata script can also pull the current cloud mask with some tweaks?

@ellenbuckley Consider adding that script you used to get the input data files to the repo. We could use it to update fetchdata.

@cpaniaguam i added the modis_download_short.ipynb notebook if you want to take a look on the sketchy way I downloaded the data.

@ellenbuckley Thanks! I will look at it and probably follow up with some questions!
