Change Log

Here you can find release highlights, bug fixes, and other updates as we continue to develop and improve the OpenET API.

v2.0.3 (04-05-2024)

Forecasted Reference ET (Addition)

Using NOAA's FRET product eto data can now be queried for 7 day forecasts. Change reference_et to "fret" and date_range to the current day and 7 days into the future. Note this is experimental and has not yet been fully evaluated for accuracy.

Raster Point & Polygon Daily Data Increase (Improvement)

We've increased the limit from 365 days to 10 years. With large polygons, you can run into memory limits with this update.

v2.0.2 (03-12-2024)

Megaliter Calculation (Fixed)

When using the multipolygon endpoints the hectares and megaliter calculations were off by a factor of 10.

Personal Bucket Export (New Feature)

Exports to a personal Google Bucket are now supported. This new parameter supersedes drive exports even if your Cloud Project is linked. See FAQ for more details.

v2.0.1 (02-09-2024)

Export Return queue_number (Deprecated)

Calculating queue placement has become too slow with the latest updates to the Earth Engine API and our growing user base. This return feature has been removed which will on average result in a 42x time reduction when exporting files.

Geodatabase Precipitation (Fixed)

In some areas precipitation data preloaded in the geodatabase was incorrectly projected resulting in erroneous data.

v2.0.0 (10-03-2023)

Duplicate Drive Folder (Bug)

When exporting files to Google Drive, the export folder may be duplicated. As far as we are aware, this is a bug within the latest version of Google Earth Engine's API. Try creating the folder before exporting.
