Meanwhile, there has been the development of the [xoak](https://xoak.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) package that supports point-wise indexing of Xarray objects with various indexes (either generic like `scipy.spatial.cKDTree` or more specific like [pys2index](https://github.com/benbovy/pys2index)'s `S2PointIndex` for lat/lon point data). `xoak` leverage Xarray's advanced indexing capabilities and supports selection using both coordinates and indexers with an arbitrary number of dimensions.

With the forthcoming Xarray release, it will be possible to create and assign custom indexes to DataArray / Dataset objects. The plan for `xoak` is then to just provide some custom indexes so that we can perform point-wise selection directly with `Dataset.sel()` instead of `Dataset.xoak.sel()`.

I think this refactoring would represent a good amount of work, though, so maybe we can do it after if you don't want to wait too long for the KD-Tree feature?","{""total_count"": 1, ""+1"": 1, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,95114700
