Note: rasterio can read directly from http. e.g. this works: 
```python
import xarray as xr
da = xr.open_rasterio('https://github.com/mapbox/rasterio/raw/master/tests/data/RGB.byte.tif')
da[:, 400:600, 400:600].plot.imshow()
```

Correction: only the windowed operations can be done lazily, the other ones will fail unless you load the data first.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,437058245

It reads the files lazily, then access only what you select, e.g.:

```python
import os
import urllib.request
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import xarray as xr

# Download the file from rasterio's repository
url = 'https://github.com/mapbox/rasterio/raw/master/tests/data/RGB.byte.tif'
urllib.request.urlretrieve(url, 'RGB.byte.tif')

# Read the data
da = xr.open_rasterio('RGB.byte.tif')
da[:, 400:600, 400:600].plot.imshow();
```
