Descartes Labs Catalog API

The Catalog organised all imagery and derived data on the Platform. Products group Bands which group Images; Storage Blobs hold arbitrary file artefacts; Events emit notifications when new images, blobs, or scheduled triggers fire so that Compute Functions can be automatically invoked. Catalog supported sharing via owners / writers / readers, EventSubscriptions (SQS, ComputeFunctionCompleted, NewImage, NewStorage, NewVector), and EventSchedules for calendar-based runs. Backed by REST endpoints on *.descarteslabs.com and surfaced as `descarteslabs.catalog`.
