// Datasets desribe the geometry used to build into the runtime scene graph. A
// Dataset is a collection of files that share a geographic Coverage area, a 
// Gridstack definition, and a filename pattern. The Dataset is an abstract 
// class that represents a collection of files that share a common root 
// directory path.
