Projection #5

Closed drewbo closed 7 years ago

Comes in as sinusoidal, can convert if needed when saving each band

matthewhanson commented 7 years ago

Data should not be converted, because any reprojection will introduce errors. When doing analysis on multiple bands you would typically do any processing in the original projection then reproject at the very end to a desired projection. Also, I'm not sure we could agree on what projection should be in, because there's no one projection everyone would use. We're best off letting users decide that.
