Run modis_GEO without network?

[zhaodan]

Dear,

We have a question here.
Is a network connection necessary to run modis_GEO?
Can we run modis_GEO without the network connection after we download the ATT/EPH data using modis_atteph?

Regards，

Short answer: yes.

Long(er) answer: A network connection is required to obtain the ATT/EPH data (and popuate the local sqlite database used by the script). Once those data are obtained (and database populated), modis_GEO will run without a network connection.

I now obtain the ATT/EPHdata by running modis_atteph. How do I populate the local database after downloading these data?

modis_atteph populates the DB that modis_GEO uses.
