optimize pixel selection #40

Description

@alee

Currently there are a few "degenerate" study area selections that cause problems with our naive minimal bounding box algorithm that selects the relevant pixels from the dataset geotiffs

  • a thin diagonal strip that intersects many pixels but with a small overall $km^2$ area will timeout
  • multipolygon study areas
  • ?

See if there's any GIS wizardry we can do to support these kinds of queries. #39 may also help if we can identify these cases early on and move to an asynchronous model of execution, e.g.,

  1. user makes a request that the system determines will take a while
  2. system returns a url status page that will eventually report the requested results
