Saving and reloading a TIF does not preserve area name + id #2748
Comments
I don't think that information can be portably stored in Thousands of Incompatible File Formats (TIFF) files. At DWD we used to have a production chain where we stored and read again TIFF files, but switched to NetCDF for this reason. Satpy could invent a way to store its metadata in a TIFF header and then introduce a specific reader for this (it wouldn't be a generic image reader but a dedicated satpy-tiff reader), but by then NetCDF-CF is arguably really the more appropriate fileformaat. |
