Initial ideas for bags:

Spatial data
Collection of timeseries
Something large to exercise lazy loading
?

Will think about this more and apply our project's use case to it

Something large to exercise lazy loading

we could think about leveraging dplyr to deal with large files - and has nice summary print object for a dataset

What is a bag?

mbjones commented 7 years ago

@dlebauer A bag is shorthand for a Bagit bag, which is a collection of objects zipped into a particular directory structure that contains manifest files and metadata files for understanding the contents. We use BagIt for serializing the our data packages in datapack. More information on BagIt can be found in the datapack documentation.
