Set Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem Access Token for GDAL Driver

This function sets system environment variables, such that the GDAL library can access the Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem https storage. Note that these settings can be used by any package depending on the GDAL library. Most notably: stars, terra, and gdalraster.

Usage

dse_set_gdal_token(token = dse_access_token())

Arguments

token

For authentication, many of the Data Space Ecosystem uses an access token. Either provide your access token, or obtain one automatically with dse_access_token() (default). Without a valid token you will likely get an "access denied" error.

Value

Returns a logical value. TRUE if all variables were successfully set. FALSE otherwise.

Examples

if (interactive() && dse_has_client_info() &&
    requireNamespace("stars")) {
  uri <-
    dse_stac_get_uri(
      "S2A_MSIL1C_20260109T132741_N0511_R024_T39XVL_20260109T142148",
      "B01", type = "odata")
   
  dse_set_gdal_token()

  ## As this URI is zipped, it need to be downloaded.
  ## But you can access it directly:
  jp2 <- stars::read_stars(uri)
}
