async-geotiff

Async GeoTIFF and Cloud-Optimized GeoTIFF (COG) reader for Python, wrapping async-tiff.

Project Goals:

• Support only for GeoTIFF and Cloud-Optimized GeoTIFF (COG) formats
• Support for reading only, no writing support
• Full type hinting.
• API similar to rasterio where possible.
  • We won't support the full rasterio API, but we'll try to when it's possible to implement rasterio APIs with straightforward maintenance requirements.
  • For methods where we do intentionally try to match with rasterio, the tests should match against rasterio.
• Initially, we'll try to support a core set of GeoTIFF formats. Obscure GeoTIFF files may not be supported.
