Error in rsat_derive() due to large zip archive

[thechibo]

I have downloaded the MOD09GA product for the US state of Nebraska, over a 4-year period. Trying to derive the NDVI results in the following error:

Error in zip_internal(zipfile, files, recurse, compression_level, append = TRUE,  : 
  zip error: `Could not create zip archive `<path>/Modis/MOD09GA/variables/NDVI.zip`` in file `zip.c:364`

The zip archive containing the NDVI .tif files is created successfully until it reaches a total of 4GB. Can the variable files be zipped individually in order to avoid this problem in generally large projects? Or is there some other way I could proceed?

Thank you in advance!
John
