-----------------------------------
Summary: Logical Type for timezone-naive timestamps
Key: PARQUET-1545
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-1545
Project: Parquet
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Tim Swast`
{{In many systems there is a difference between a timezone-naive timestamp
column (called DATETIME in BigQuery, 'logicalType': 'datetime' in Avro) and a
timezone-aware timestamp (called TIMESTAMP in BigQuery and always stored in
UTC). It seems from [this
discussion|https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/pull/51#discussion_r119911623]
and the [list of logical
types|https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/blob/master/LogicalTypes.md]
that parquet only has the timezone-aware version, as all timestamps are stored
according to UTC.}}
