Use rasteret to read COG?

[TomNicholas]

We have made a custom python code for byte-range calculation code based on GDAL’s C++ approach.

We're currently working on an open-source library which will be called “Rasteret”

Sounds like these people may have just written written a COG reader for us

we look forward to sharing the library and more technical details in an upcoming deep dive blog. Stay tuned!

It's a cool article, I look forward to checking out Rasteret once they open source it.

It'll also be worth considering the differences in byte range serialization approaches and whether VirtualiZarr should support some sort of to_stac option.
