Xarray already supports this, the syntax is that of xarray though. 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(); ```

(or any other indexing operation)
