title: 'tilework: Extensible Tile Planning and Windowed Parallel Processing'
version: 1.0.0
abstract: An extensible framework for tile-based processing of large, spatially indexed
  data. Tile plans are first-class objects describing a set of bounds, which may be
  regular grids in pixel or coordinate space, tiles centered on supplied points, or
  adaptive decompositions such as quadtrees. Bounds may carry padding, supplying the
  overlapping context that neighborhood operations and objects spanning several tiles
  require. Extraction dispatches on the class of the input, so one plan can window
  two data sources of differing type together; methods are provided for 'terra' rasters
  and vector proxies, and other packages can register methods for their own formats.
  Tiles are processed in parallel through 'future', or optionally 'BiocParallel',
  and a per-worker initialization step amortizes expensive setup such as loading a
  model.
