get_images

Retrieves images and related information from Google Earth Engine (GEE)
based on the specified session task.

internal

Simplifies the creation, management, and updating of local databases using data extracted from 'Google Earth Engine' ('GEE'). It integrates with 'GEE' to store, aggregate, and process spatio-temporal data, leveraging 'SQLite' for efficient, serverless storage. The 'geeLite' package provides utilities for data transformation and supports real-time monitoring and analysis of geospatial features, making it suitable for researchers and practitioners in geospatial science. For details, see Kurbucz and Andrée (2025) "Building and Managing Local Databases from Google Earth Engine with the geeLite R Package" <https://hdl.handle.net/10986/43165>.
