The file format
A .moos.parquet — a moosbett bundle — is a valid
GeoParquet file
with added version history, visible to our moosbett reader. It's intended to be
compatible with all existing GeoParquet readers, which will just see a plain file.
See the architecture to learn more about how
this file is created, how it can be further compacted, and how it supports
further edits.
The .moos.parquet name is a convention for
clarity, but plain .parquet works too. A moosbett reader will still
identify version history from the footer. (Note, the dedicated
.geoparquet extension is
discouraged
by the GeoParquet spec.)
