Avoid reprojection (WarpedVRT) when not needed

Open vincentsarago opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

when we created rio-tiler we had 2 main requirement:

  • get a mercator tile from any raster
  • be able to override nodata value (for Landsat data)

Because of this we used rasterio WarpedVRT which is really convenient.

Info from https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/issues/5343, seems to indicate that we should not used WarpedVRT when no reprojection is not needed (for speed and for resampling artefacts).
