I guess you will be able to access the data with copernicus (usually thy even provide raw L0 data)

codepoint E007 is a slashed zero... would be interesting to know why this is not the default

I know icechunk and I’m a huge fan of earthmover. But a common binary format like parquet seems nice… with interop for e.g duckdb and geo queries, you can “just load” era5 and do something like get wind direction/speed along the following path for the last 5 years group by day etc…

> This is just the beginning of modernizing geospatial data storage. We’re already looking ahead to other types of geospatial data such as raster, point cloud, spatial indexes…

its not far from raster to full multidimensional

I’m super exited about the planned support for multidimensional data, I know zarr is there but a long term storage format other than netcdf would be interesting maybe also something to replace grib, geotiff etc to share files

The conclusion: "One interesting idea is that, at their core, AI models are nothing more than compression models that take the corpus of data humanity has and boil it down to a set of weights" is also good, there is a interesting paper about compressing weather date with neuronal networks: https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.12538

What's missing a bit is that the comparison is more for general purpose data, there are some very interesting and super fast compressing algorithms for e.g. numbers (Turbopforc, gorilla, etc...) Daniel Lemires blog is super interesting about the different algorithms and how to make them faster.

Wow thanks for the hint, I did not know trainline it even shows the connections I’m searching for where trainitalia, sbb and DB failed :)

If you now could just book a train between these cities on a common european platform (or local transportation provider...)... one could dream...

just booking a train and getting a quote crossing multiple borders (without interrail) is just a nightmare :(
