A couple of implementation questions - for the 'in depth' page? #53

Open lukesdm opened 2 years ago

lukesdm commented 2 years ago

Range requests: How does a client know which ranges to request? Is a first request made to get the SRS + other metadata, then that SRS is used to convert coordinates to the byte range?

Caching: Are there any common mechanisms/techniques for caching wrt. the range requests? Does it even make sense? Is it wholly the responsibility of the client? Or are there some options for middleware?

Would be happy to create a PR for the 'in depth' page if appropriate (or anywhere else) :-)
