<p>Matt,</p>
<p>There has been an enhancement in gdalwarp to support writing directly to drivers, like COG, that supports only the CreateCopy mode. So you don't need the 2 step process and can directly gdalwarp -of COG (it will more or less do the 2 steps internally)</p>

<p>A few years ago it was best practice to follow a gdal warp process with translate in order to get better compression, and even overall speed although extra disk write is involved. Is this still the case? and when using COG output driver?  e.g.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>gdalwarp infile.tif interim.tif</p>
<p>gdal_translate -of cog -co compress=zstd  interim.tif final.tif</p>
<p> </p>
<p>thanks!</p>
