Adding my own xarray datacube w/ time slider, is this currently possible?

[lalligagger]

Hi Qiusheng, this is such a cool project! And I'm still curious about anymap for 3D viz once I have time to put some attention on that. Thanks for adding me to that repo.

Onto the issue topic: I will definitely be using your STAC+timeslider example and also have some custom data to have, currently in xarray ds/ da's.

1. What would be your suggestion to load custom datasets? I'm using odc to load the "raw" data from a STAC search, just doing basic index calcs so far, and expect resolution changes, etc. so more metadata changes than just adding new band.
2. I've gotten through the xarray -> DIY STAC catalog process before, but would prefer to skip it. I was considering using xpublish and seeing if I could hook this into leafmap. Can you give any guidance on if this could work or how else you might approach? The publishing and viewing would all happen on the same machine, so I am looking for lightweight over performant solutions, and no real need for persistent caching.
3. Ultimately I would love to have the raw & processed data compared with a swiper and time scrubber. Assuming this would take some work, if you have any pointers I might give it a try!

Thanks very much.

Could a time key be added to your Titiler example, possibly?

The time slider needs tile layers, whether remote tiles through TiTler or local tiles through localtileserver. I guess you are referring to local tiles. For now, localtileserver does not support in-memory raster yet. Once it does, you should be able to use it the generate tiles from your own xarray datacube. See banesullivan/localtileserver#147
