## This script downloads an image of earth from Japan's Himawari8 satellite.
## It is configurable for 1,100^2, 2,200^2, or 8,800^2 pixel outputs.
## It requires;
## montage(1) from imagemagick (http://www.imagemagick.org/)
## date(1) from either BSD or GNU utils
## curl(1) from http://curl.haxx.se/
## jq(1) from https://stedolan.github.io/jq/
## Configuration
OUTPUT_FILENAME="himawari8.png";
URL_BASE='http://himawari8.nict.go.jp/img/D531106';
## The amount of tiles on one side
## This value should be either 1, 2, 4, or 16
## Each tile is 550px x 550px, so 4 (default) will produce an image 2,200px x 2,200px
TILE_COUNT='4';
## Check requirements
