Investigate/add examples of datasets in ZARR format to the scivision catalog

[acocac]

Zarr is a relatively new cloud-based data format specifically for improving access to N-Dimensional arrays.

Zarr is unique because it is an implementation of a chunked storage library for data that supports parallel reads, parallel writes, and easily plugs into different storage systems like cloud object stores.

It'd be interesting to check some benchmark datasets across domains in this format and incorporate them in the Scivision catalog.

Some references:

• Bioimaging

  • OME-Zarr

• Geospatial

  • GeoZarr

I started setting up a zarr dataset in this repo, but didn't have a good place to host the data (other than github): https://github.com/lowe-lab-ucl/cell-cycle-scivision

Have you uploaded the data to GitHub? I've found the data.yml, but not the dataset.
