Aggregation
1 Definition
The presentation of many data files as one consistent block of time and space.
Notes
Usually implemented w/ OPENDAP clients THREDDS, ERDDAP Hyrax. Aggregation can be achieved through physical aggregation (combining several netcdf files to present a consistent block of time/space) or through virtual aggregation (combining several netcdf files dynamically through an OPENDAB client (ZarrDAP, THREDDS)
