I'm not sure to understand why we don't have shape in the example

good catch, either this should be clearly indicated as a partial array metadata document, with some fields omitted, or the full array metadata should be there

| There are no required attributes for Datasets but to qualify as a GeoZarr Dataset, the group must contain at least one DataArray with spatial reference information. | ||
| This DataArray is referenced in the `grid_mapping` attribute of the dataset and is usually named `spatial_ref`. | ||

It feels weird to say no attribute but then say that we need to declare things in zarr_convention attribute

remain compatible with what? if not in the spec, we shouldn't imply compatibility with tools that will read/write GeoZarr

This should be a schema. I got lost at the end of the first sentence!

totally agree but I'm not sure how we could put it in a schema. I wrote this for myself to make sense of how xarray distinguishes coordinate variables from data variables (and geozarr inherits this)

follow-up in #133 |
Revise the GeoZarr mini-spec to align with Zarr V1 conventions and exclusively target Zarr V3, removing references to Zarr V2.
