STAC Browser Endpoint

[BnJam]

Linking Issue from STAC Browser for possible collaboration:
radiantearth/stac-browser#283

Problem description

There is a path for having optimised integration of the STAC Browser to use TiTiler as the tiling and preprocessing engine to visualize STAC Catalogs or queries. This enables higher quality exploration of Assets before ingesting.

This could be a new endpoint group, eg: /stacbrowser | /browser.

Thank you for moving this to a discussion feed.

Using TiTiler as the tiling server for STAB Browser only makes use in part of what TiTiler can accomplish. Integrating more functionality into the STAC Browser visualization pane with TiTiler can help improve user visualization and data exploration from inside the STAC Browser.

As for a preprocessing engine: TiTiler can make use of the statistical and the band operations endpoint parameters to preprocess additional bands (indices) when pulling in new data into a Dataset.
