Lazy plotting

We should be able to plot larger than memory files and zoom in to get detail.

See: https://github.com/yeesian/ArchGDAL.jl/issues/195

This works now, but not with zooming: for that we need Makie.jl recipes.

With PyramidScheme we have the interactive plotting after a short preparation time for computing the pyramid. Would you expect this to also be able on the fly?

[rafaqz]

How easy would it be to hook PyramidScheme into Rasters?

[felixcremer]

I am actually already using Rasters for the Makie recipe. And the Readme shows an example of computing the pyramids of a raster from RasterDataSources. This works because DiskArrayEngine uses views an doesn't need a special type anymore.

The next step is to register diskarrayengine and pyramidscheme and to streamline the API.

[felixcremer]

Once the registration is done, we should add a small example of using PyramidScheme.jl to the Rasters docs.

[felixcremer]

PyramidScheme is registered now and this could get a mention in the Rasters docs. There is an example with a RasterDataSource in the PyramidScheme README which could be used.

[rafaqz]

Should show that at JuliaCon too

[felixcremer]

I am going to show PyramidScheme and building a Pyramid from a Raster at my PyramidScheme.jl talk tomorrow.

[rafaqz]

Ok I won't do that in the rasters talk then!
