xcube has a quite clear idea of how a (geo) data cube should be represented using Zarr as external format and xarray.Dataset as in-memory representation.
Describe the solution you'd like
Provide a specification of the xcube (geo) data cube profile and provide a practical guide to generate cubes that conform to the specification. Add them as markdown files to xcube's docs folder.
The practical guide should include how-to's such as
how to encode datatype and set fill value (before using xarray and afterwards using "xcube patch")
how to encode grid mapping (before using xcube/xarray and afterwards using "xcube patch")
how to encode color mappings (before using xcube/xarray and afterwards using "xcube patch")
how to determine a variable's reasonable display ranges taking into account data distribution (linear, normal, log) and categorical data
how to fix issues with time dimension/coordinates
how to create pyramids
how to write cubes without fill value chunks
Additional context
Use the dataset specifications we provided for the ESA DeepESDL and AVL projects.
