I recently requested a dataset of MODIS imagery from 2001-2012. Request was on Friday, and it is still processing. Does anyone know how long a dataset of that size generally takes to process?

We have verified that the extract is still processing. Hopefully it will complete by tomorrow morning (10/11). An extract of this size should not take that long to run, and we will investigate further after it completes.

Thanks for letting us know!
