Usage

sentinel_to_tif(layers = NULL, path = ".", destination, spat_res = 10)

Arguments

layers

(character) Vector of file paths to Sentinel data files. If NULL, the function searches for files in the specified path with names containing "B".

path

(character) Directory path where Sentinel data files are located. Default is the current directory.

destination
