Inspect the Spatial CRAN Task View entry for rsat and read the CRAN package archival section in Maintenance.md. Verify whether rsat is still archived; if it is not restored within the stated window, remove it from the task view and confirm the rendered content remains consistent.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Package rsat is currently listed in CRAN Task View Spatial but the package has actually been archived for more than 60 days on CRAN. Often this indicates that the package is currently not sufficiently actively maintained and should be excluded from the task view.

Alternatively, you might also consider reaching out to the authors of the package and encourage (or even help) them to bring the package back to CRAN. See the section on CRAN package archivals in the maintenance guidelines for more details.

In any case, the situation should be resolved in the next four weeks. If the package does not seem to be brought back to CRAN, please exclude it from the task view.
