Imagine if all you had to do to serve geopspatial data over OGC APIs was to ingest @zarr.dev datasets into cloud object storage...and the platform handled the rest. Scaling, logging, metrics, auth, etc. That's Flux! Join our webinar if you want to learn more.

I am so excited to share this new project with NASA and @developmentseed.org . By applying Icechunk and the "virtualization" approach, we can make Petabytes of archival data accessible to high performance analytics. Unlocking NASA's cloud archives will have immense downstream benefits for the world.
