Description (last modified by ole)

Currently geospatial_data object doesn't use caching. It would be beneficial for it to have caching especially when loading large datasets from 'pts' or 'txt' file.

What might be a good idea is to allow for a 'blocking' read-write. This would e.g. be useful for converting large csv files to pts files in case where the data won't fit in memory.

Caching may not help. If it is a matter of loading from a pts file or a cached result, the time it takes could be the same. It is worth investigating this, of course, so I'll leave the ticket open and get onto it at some point.

I'll close this ticket since caching now works well for set_quantity.
