Icechunk previews for our datasets are now listed on the Registry of Open Data on AWS! Check out the Icechunk example usage in our docs for IFS ENS, GEFS, GFS, and HRRR forecasts to get started. With the addition of GEFS forecast and analysis we now have an identical, live updating Icechunk Zarr for all live updating standard Zarr v3 datasets in our catalog!
