support getting data from GEE
GEE data is cataloged in STAC https://gee.stac.cloud/?t=catalogs A potential useful package could be https://github.com/aazuspan/wxee
If indeed feasible, it would be nice if this could land within https://github.com/Deltares/hydromt/blob/main/hydromt/io.py
And think about generic structure following https://github.com/Deltares/hydromt/blob/main/data/catalogs/deltares_data.yml
Data should probably be cached (so a new query does not download the same data again), and that should probably be stored locally within the default data catalogue (see also https://github.com/Deltares/hydromt/blob/main/hydromt/data_catalog.py).
Finally, tiling is needed, which can use the already existing 'chunks' feature from the data catalog.
with many of the other issues around data / cloud etc going on I wonder if this is worth pursuing. I'm going to close this issue for now. We can always reopen if we decide this still has added value on top of all the other developements.
