🚨 New version of xarray-grass 🚨

I'm glad to announce that I've release version 0.4.0 of xarray-grass! It comes with many improvements: 🚀 Lazy loading of GRASS space-time datasets, 📅 Better management of time dimensions, including support of units when writing relative-time series to GRASS
🗘 Automatic transposition of arrays when writing to GRASS.

Try it today !

if you wonder about coordinates in arrays and netcdf and Zarr and #xarray check out this awesome video and gallery, to see where xarray is going

excellent presentation by Deepak Cherian of #earthmover

made some huge af virtual #Zarr today, each var is 12Tb uncompressed, all referenced to public available netcdf servers but not using netcdf lib at all for read

(Reliant on pretty recent #GDAL or #xarray if you want to explore)

been plodding towards this a long time, and finally closed the circle

More to come 👌

Anyone would know a workaround about the lack of native support for complex valued arrays in #xarray netcdf writer?

I am excited to announce xarray-grass, a new free software Python library designed to bridge two open source data science heavy weights: @grassgis and #xarray (https://xarray.dev/).

Although xarray-grass is in its nascent phase, I encourage you to check out the repository on GitHub (https://github.com/lrntct/xarray-grass) and experiment with it. Your insights and contributions will play a significant role in the project's future.

I am really looking forward to a time when scientific data analysis is less of a constant fuckaround and fight with technical bullshit. I'd *really* like

- #netCDF natively supporting complex numbers
- #Python #xarray and #pandas to natively support physical units (#pint is great on its own but the integrations leave a LOT to be desired)
- #Jupyter notebooks to suck less (crashes, glitches, widget plots not saved statically, an effing BUILTIN formatter, etc.)
- proper data pipeline systems
