I have a few image download scripts floating around for different purposes (example), but I think it may be useful to add a more general-purpose set of image download utilities to pyinaturalist-convert. Possible features:

  • Accept a variety of inputs:
    • Observation objects
    • Taxon objects
    • Observation IDs
    • Image URLs
  • Rate-limiting (tracked separately for S3 and static.inaturalist.org)
  • Parallel downloads (probably just two threads: one for S3-hosted and one for inat-hosted images)
  • Track download progress, and resume if interrupted (without duplicate downloads)
