Description

Suggestion Description

Our team is interested in using rocAL for dataloading for large scale spatio-temporal models, however, our data isn't standard image data, but multichannel weather data. From my understanding (feel free to correct me if I am wrong) rocAL current only supports standard 3-4 channel image data. Would it be possible to use or implement arbitrary channels in rocAL?
