Provide example of accessing raw data directly for large volumes #38

Closed zacharyDez closed 2 months ago

zacharyDez commented 2 months ago

For large data volumes, it may be more efficient to work with the entire data an not a specific subset retrieved from the API. The API has upper bound size limitation (6MB). We are currently improving the amount of data that may be returned (#36), and defining some constraints of the requests (#37). That being said, to support end-users who may have data access needs beyond the bounds defined by the API, we could provide an example of retrieving the raw geoparquet data directly.

Based on discussion with @alukach in #37, we should only consider this if we encounter an issue with the proposed redirected response approach.
