description=This QGIS plug-in lets you explore satellite images and geospatial datasets from Google Earth Engine.
version=0.5.0
author=Sandro Klippel
email=sandroklippel@gmail.com

about=Search, view and download satellite imagery and geospatial datasets from Google Earth Engine. 

  A Google Earth Engine account linked to a Cloud Project is required. Additionally, the EE Python API (earthengine-api) must be installed and authenticated. 

  To install on Windows (OSGeo4W Shell):
  
  > python -m pip install --upgrade pip
  > python -m pip install earthengine-api --user
  
  To install on Linux (Ubuntu based):
  
  $ sudo apt update
  $ sudo apt upgrade
  $ sudo apt install python3-pip
  $ pip3 install earthengine-api --user
  
  To authenticate on QGIS Terminal Python (Ctrl+Alt+P):
  
  >>> import ee
  >>> ee.Authenticate()

  The Cloud Project name must be assigned to GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT environment variable. 
  This can be done in QGIS (Settings -> Options -> System -> Environment).
