Description

  1. A Python tool that would convert CoverageJSON objects into common frameworks like xarray, geopandas, Zarr, etc, ready for analysis and plotting.

Along the way it could do validation of "the parts the schema can't reach".

And it would also write CoverageJSON from those common frameworks although that's a little trickier as not all the information may be present.

Research direction

Review the CoverageJSON schema alongside the proposed xarray, geopandas, and Zarr conversion targets. Define the conversion and validation scope before implementation, including what information can be preserved when writing CoverageJSON back from those frameworks. Done should include a usable Python tool with validation and documented conversion behavior.
