GRIB files come with coordinate system specified through attributes like this:
'GRIB_DxInMetres': 3000.0,
'GRIB_DyInMetres': 3000.0,
'GRIB_LaDInDegrees': 38.5,
'GRIB_Latin1InDegrees': 38.5,
'GRIB_Latin2InDegrees': 38.5,
'GRIB_LoVInDegrees': 262.5,
'GRIB_NV': 0,
'GRIB_Nx': 1799,
'GRIB_Ny': 1059,
'GRIB_gridDefinitionDescription': 'Lambert Conformal can be secant or tangent, conical or bipolar',
'GRIB_gridType': 'lambert',
'GRIB_iScansNegatively': 0,
'GRIB_jPointsAreConsecutive': 0,
'GRIB_jScansPositively': 1,
'GRIB_latitudeOfFirstGridPointInDegrees': 21.138123,
'GRIB_latitudeOfSouthernPoleInDegrees': 0.0,
'GRIB_longitudeOfFirstGridPointInDegrees': 237.280472,
'GRIB_longitudeOfSouthernPoleInDegrees': 0.0,
This code in pygrib converts to a proj4 string.
Would it be in scope to create a CRSIndex from such metadata. It appears that first translating to a proj4 string would be easiest.
