The EKO ASI-16 camera at NREL takes images every minute but only saves the image every 10 minutes. Higher frequency images may assist studies using the sky camera. Here we enable scraping and saving the image each minute.

Images are published by NREL at the url: https://midcdmz.nrel.gov/data/rt/srrlasi.jpg

docker run -v "C:\Users\jhamm\OneDrive - The University of Texas at Austin\business\UTexas\projects\NRELASI\data:/data/" simple
