 Although similar packages exist (eemont, geetools, etc.), `RadGEEToolbox` extends functionality and provides cohesive, chainable methods for research oriented projects working with Landsat TM & OLI, Sentinel-1 SAR, and/or Sentinel-2 MSI datasets (Table 1). The ultimate goal of `RadGEEToolbox` is to make satellite image processing easier and faster for real world applications relying on the most commonly utilized remote sensing platforms.
 
+As of version `1.7.1`, `RadGEEToolbox` supports any generic image collection via the `GenericCollection` module which allows for utilization of the same data management, temporal reduction, zonal statistics, and data export tools available for the `LandsatCollection`, `Sentinel1Collection`, and `Sentinel2Collection` modules. This allows users to provide their own image collection of choice, such as PRISM or MODIS data, to benefit from the tools available with `RadGEEToolbox`.
