I saw in the conversation that one of the problems was the serialization of this information in NetCDF files. My class allows you to serialize the tree: ```python In [5]: coordinates = np.asarray(( np.random.uniform(-180.0, 180.0, 4), np.random.uniform(-90.0, 90.0, 4), np.random.uniform(-10000, 100000, 4))).T In [6]: tree.packing(coordinates) In [7]:tree.__getstate__() Out[7]: ((6378137.0, 0.0033528106647474805), array([[ 22759.57572379, 79992.43969068, -6418971.88026264], [ 170101.10528328, -718657.28577825, 6402886.08678261], [-1385601.77565369, 1608787.7370298, 6095481.97179018], [-6272786.11583145, 12746.83764378, -1461257.51500618]])) ``` It can be structured in a NetCDF file.

Unfortunately, this isn't supported right now, but it's one of the main points in xarray's [development roadmap](http://xarray.pydata.org/en/stable/roadmap.html#flexible-indexes). @shoyer has started working on this in #2195.
