This is awesome - great job
One feature that would be immediately interesting for a specific userbase is to be able to import existing multi-dimensional arrays - e.g. netCDF / Zarr
There aren't tools available for being able to view those in a reasonable way currently (generally I'd use a REPL and be slicing & printing 2D chunks)
So even if it were import-only, this would be v useful
- egeria_planning 8y agoI was surprised that there is no common file standard for interchanging dimensional data. As far is I can see netCDF and Zarr only store values/arrays and not the metadata? I will check if there is an easy way to import one of them.
- digikata 8y agoHDF is multidimensional and carries metadata.
- tudelo 8y agoTo be fair there are SOME tools for reading netCDF files (there is netCDF4 for python for example) but it's not all that great out of the box, you have to write your own method to walk through all variables etc... kind of a pain. ncdump also.
