Description

Support properties specified within an input/output collection or process to modify inline its inbound/outbound data with a subset or alternate expression calculation.

In intermediate steps (when data is passed from an output to another process' input), the I/O can be handled any way. When the top-most process has properties they must be handled as output modifiers. When the most deeply-nested input has properties, they could be handled as input modifiers. However, given this applies to collection or process only, those are implemented has "pseudo-processes" in Weaver, and therefore can be handled as output of the relevant operation for every case.

2 possible forms to consider:

{
  "inputs": {
    "subset-input": {
      "collection": "...",  
      "$comment": "Subsets the available data to specified properties (similar to 'filter')",
      "properties": ["B04", "B03", "B02"]
    },
    "expr-input": {
      "collection": "...",  
      "$comment": "computes the expression as derived data",
      "properties": {
        "ndvi": "(B08 - B04) / (B08 + B04)"
      }
    } 
  }
}
