lat | number or null | No | Latitude in degrees (-90 to 90). Send lat and lon, or place. Default: null. |
lon | number or null | No | Longitude in degrees (-180 to 180). Send lat and lon, or place. Default: null. |
max_cloud | number | No | Most cloud accepted, as a percent of the pictured area (0-100, default 30). No scene that clear is a 404 too_cloudy (not charged). Default: 30. |
