[PROJ] Grid CDN Update and Crowdfunding Request

[Chris Crook]

Looks like a happy alignment of the stars :-)

I believe discussions in the past have been along the lines of proposing an entirely new geodetic grid format.  It seems to me if GeoTIFF can serve our requirements it could get us a huge step up in terms of existing infrastructure, particularly with the potential for online selection of subsets, grid creation and management.  (Apart from the constraints from the circular proj  <-> geotiff dependency that is, but libtiff is presumably fair game).

Cheers
Chris

Since part of the discussion seems to be about a file format for grids: OGC has a meeting next week in Toulouse with the CRS working group meeting on Monday at 16:30 local time [1].  I do not know if this is coincidence, but a proposed agenda item is "Proposal for a standard geodetic grid file". As far as I know this is just about starting the discussion at OGC; I don't think there is a draft yet.
