Determine final zoom level for rasters #25

Open dcdenu4 opened 3 years ago

Currently the rasters uploaded with zoom level of 7. This is great because it allows us to upload via the free Mapbox Studio upload tool. However, when zooming in on watershed level areas the rasters can look a bit blurry. We might want to consider processing zoom levels 8 and 9. Doing so would mean uploading through the mapbox uploads api and paying for processing.

Time estimate for processing and uploading different zoom data: 1 - 3 days if data pipeline is in place. 1 - 3 weeks otherwise.
