Advancing Geospatial Data Analysis with XDGGS
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The Pangeo community is developing xdggs. This poster was presented during the 3rd Destination Earth User eXchange in Darmstadt (15 October 2024): XDGGS is an Xarray extension developed through a sprint at the ESA BiDS’23 conference, led by the Pangeo community in collaboration with OSGeo and the OGC. The OGC DGGS SWG works on standardizing concepts and definitions around DGGS. The cooperation ensures reference systems and grids are usable across libraries and APIs. XDGGS provides a unified, high-level API that simplifies the use of DGGS types like HEALPIX, H3, or DGGRID ISEA7H, using DGGS-specific cell identifiers as an index within Xarray. By integrating DGGS with Xarray, XDGGS enables efficient geospatial workflows, reducing complexity and enhancing Xarray's data processing capabilities. This extension promotes FAIR data practices, improving data access and interoperability for large-scale geospatial applications.
