We can use Git-LFS for test data files, that may improve repository cloning speed / test data versioning / etc.

As a part of this, it would be great to get rid of the .zip-ing of test data. Makes it a hassle to add new test images, and probably creates massive binary diffs every time you update it, but I'm not sure what the original rationale was.

Another idea is to have a separate repo and and artifact containing various test data. Not sure what the technical benefit, but it has aesthetic appeal to me for some reason.

Do we still want to keep it open? GIT LFS is very limited in downloads in its free version.

We should close this. LocationTech is very reluctant in supporting git LFS for their repos and free tier is woefully insufficient.

I think we could use our own version of test utility which downloads test files from s3 and validate checksums such that we can avoid checking any more rasters in.
