I think the point was that Terracotta might be better off using GDAL directly instead of via rasterio.
Maybe, but I think mapbox is doing a great job with rasterio, and so far we didn’t run into any unsolvable problems (although we got close sometimes). I think for the ease of installation alone rasterio is a blessing.
- houzi 5y agoYes. I'm having a hard time finding a good selling point for rasterio. > I think for the ease of installation alone rasterio is a blessing. How does rasterio simplify installation, when you still have to deal with gdal's C extension dependencies?
- dionhaefner 5y agoRasterio wheels ship with GDAL binaries. No C compiler needed.
