Before running SADASADAM, eodag needs to be configured (see [eodag documentation](https://eodag.readthedocs.io/en/stable/getting_started_guide/configure.html)).
The eodag config file needs to be filled with credentials for satellite data providers. SADASADAM calls eodag to download only Sentinel-2
and Landsat-8/9 Level 1C data. Therefore, providing credentials to the `cop_dataspace` and `usgs` sections of the eodag config file
is recommended. In order to make the downloaded data accessible to FORCE, the download path `outputs_prefix` of the eodag config file
needs to be defined in the SADASADAM config file parameter `download_dir` as well (see below). It is recommended to define `extract: False` in the

(see below). It is recommended to define `extract: False` in the eodag config file as SADASADAM automatically extracts the downloaded data according to the input requirements of FORCE.

A priority of providers can be defined in the eodag config file. We noticed the unexpected behaviour that download of Sentinel-2
from `cop_dataspace` fails, if both `cop_dataspace` and `usgs` have the same priority. A functioning workaround seems to be to
set the priority of `cop_dataspace` to 2, and that of `usgs` to 1 - this way both Sentinel-2 and Landsat download worked in our
tests.
