This document aims to provides a geospatial extension to the Zarr specification. Zarr specifies a protocol and format used for storing Zarr arrays, while the present extension defines conventions and recommendations for storing multidimensional georeferenced grid of geospatial observations (including rasters).

Per the discussion in #11 -- I think this is where we've landed for how we are going to jump into this.

In discussion with Jonathan Gregory, I've been advised that our goals around origin/offset style coordinates are not actually out of line with the CF data model documented in Appendix I and that we should probably just go ahead using that CF data model and implementing the compact origin/offset style coordinate variables needed for direct geotiff compatibility as an implementation of the CF data model seperate from the NetCDF-CF convention. I've noted that in deliverables.

I'm not attached to any of this but wanted to move us along since it seems we are in agreement.

Per the conversation at the GeoZarr spec call today, what I have in this PR around the deliverable is not necessarily correct. For now, we are just going to evolve https://github.com/zarr-developers/geozarr-spec/blob/main/geozarr-spec.md to accommodate the full suite of requirements of geozarr. How this is published as a normative standard is an open question. I will try to summarize where I think the group stands regarding that in an update to this PR.

@briannapagan @christophenoel @rabernat -- I think this now reflects where we stand?

Seems very good to me

dblodgett-usgs commented 1 year ago

@briannapagan -- can we discuss and edit/merge this and set some deadlines for the OGC submission tomorrow?

briannapagan commented 1 year ago

Yes, I will also commit some minor changes. Thanks David!

Note that I have created two weeks ago a branch for working on the OGC Charter (it includes the usual sections of OGC Charters): https://github.com/zarr-developers/geozarr-spec/blob/ogc-charter/CHARTER.adoc

On my side:

I won't be able attend the meeting today.

dblodgett-usgs commented 1 year ago

Per work on https://github.com/zarr-developers/geozarr-spec/blob/ogc-charter/CHARTER.adoc I'll close this PR.
