This project provides a way to retrieve only the satellite imagery you need as you fly,
wherever you choose to in the world!

I feel like this should go in with the docs dir, not here. Maybe add to docs/index.md.

## Current Version Software Characteristics
* Does not remove cached high-res downloaded image automatically, these files can get very large(>100GB) overtime and require manual intervention to delete. They are stored in the configured `paths.cache_dir` (see `.autoortho` configuration file) directory.
* Hence, if you fly through the same place without deleting you cache, the previously cached file will be accessed again without any downloads
* Unfinished downloads are store in (C:\Users\username\.autoortho-data/downloads) folder by default

This is a cross platform project, so references to 'C:' drive should be avoided.

* While flying, satellite images are cached on the filesystem. These may require manual intervention to delete from time to time. These files are stored in the configured `paths.cache_dir` (see `.autoortho` configuration file) directory.

Suggested change
* Hence, if you fly through the same place without deleting you cache, the previously cached file will be accessed again without any downloads
* It is recommended, however, to not cleanup satellite imagery cache too often as that can effect performance and increase strain on servers.
