Hi, you should check out the Region struct in fastanvil. That will let you extract chunks, which you can then read as NBT.

I know that level.dat files are compressed with Gzip, and .mca files with Zlib, but I don't know how I should approach the parsing process.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

There is a function region.read_chunk()
that returns a Vec<u8>
. Is this the raw NBT data?
Yes it is, uncompressed. You can see the docs here: https://docs.rs/fastanvil/latest/fastanvil/struct.Region.html#method.read_chunk
