REST API access for a DGGS data cube

[danlooo]

allow tile API e.h. for /tile/{cube_url}/{z}/{x}/{y}/tile.png?time=2023-07-31&band=1
where cube_url is URL encoded path to zarr

What about the creation of CellCubes on the fly? e.g. virtual zarr based on lat/lon netCDF?

There is https://github.com/xpublish-community/xpublish providing a REST API to download metadata and individual binary chunks. However, there is no URL path or query defined here to access individual cell elements.

Besides space and time, there is also altitude and other dims. So there is no intrinsic small set of path vs query dims.
