Feature request: size approximation under export dialog #41

Open VikingScientist opened 4 years ago

Currently there is mental arithmetic to approximate the export size of domain. If you do the square root of the area and then divide it by the requested resolution you get a first approximation to the number of gridcells in the final output. I would like to have this process automated and that the export dialoge either outputs a best guess for output in size of MB or number of gridpoints. Doesn't have to be perfect, but I would like to get a heads up if I put in some wrong values and suddenly requested 10 million grid points in each direction.

Yep, I've done this myself a few times.

This is related to #37 where a size approximation would also be appreciated. The difference with that one is that that one would require size approximations on the download button, while this is a size approximation on the export button.
