Description

As requested from @giovp, planned for a future PR:

  • extend functionality to get tiles from the raw space (not just from the target space)
    • when querying tiles from the raw space, allow to specify either units, either pixels. Not both
    • when querying tiles from the target space, allow to specify also only units (and infer pixels), or only pixels. This is possible only when the data is not a multiscale, otherwise the pixels could not be determined
    • implement the transform parameter in ImageTilesDataset
    • add tests for the tiling
    • add tests for data_extent.py

Research direction

Start by tracing the tiling implementation and the ImageTilesDataset transform parameter, then inspect data_extent.py. Check how raw-space and target-space queries handle units, pixels, and multiscale data. Done means the listed query modes work consistently and tests cover tiling and data_extent.py.
