+
+### Fixed:
+- `find-new-insar-files.sh` will now take new directories that lack orbit data with it to the next check if the reference timestamp file is updated (by updating the timestamps of the relevant `*.json` files)

 ### Added:
 - `s1_download` will now perform a ZIP-file integrity check after the call to `caroline-download` completes. If incomplete downloads are found, those are removed and the call to `caroline-download` is re-initiated. If this loop repeats over 20 times, `s1_download` aborts with exit code `5` to prevent infinite loops.
