Description

Things like `sample_freq_mins` can be inferred from any given dataset, e.g. by calculating the modal diff. I ran into this when forgetting what frequency I downloaded my dataset with!

Research direction

Locate SatelliteDataset and inspect how sample_freq_mins and other properties are currently set. Try the inference on a dataset with a known sampling interval, using the modal difference between observations, and consider the work done when properties are inferred by default without requiring the downloader to remember the frequency.
