(dropping gdal-dev)
geotiff.js has LERC support.
Actually looking at
https://github.com/geotiffjs/geotiff.js/blob/master/src/compression/lerc.js,
I see it supports LERC_ZSTD and there's a 'import { ZSTDDecoder } from
'zstddec'", so adding standalone ZSTD support should likely be easy for
someone with moderate JS skills.
Floating point LERC TIFFs compressed with a MAX_Z_ERROR to one decimal
better than the *stated precision* of the grids
That might be tricky to determine since not all grids are published with
a stated precision (for ones in an ASCII format looking at the original
file could potentially give some hint assuming the number of decimals
used reflect the precision, but for ones in let's say GTX or GSB, we
can't really tell), and we can't use the EPSG accuracy of the
transformation to determine it. For example the KKJ <--> ETRS89 TIN
transformation is published in EPSG with an accuracy of 3 cm, but NLS
Finland wants results to be reproducible with a precision of 1e-4 m
would be smaller and more efficiently compressed/decompressed. By
maybe a 1/3rd over zstd and deflate.
Experiment with our current biggest grid EGM_2008:
