+FlatGeobuf is a binary (FlatBuffers-encoded) format that defines geospatial geometries. It is row-oriented rather than columnar like GeoParquet and GeoArrow and offers a different set of trade-offs.
 FlatGeobuf was inspired by [geobuf](https://github.com/mapbox/geobuf) and [flatbush](https://github.com/mourner/flatbush). 
 
 ## Characteristics 
 
-- binary
-- row oriented
-- supports appends, but no random writes
+- Binary
+- Row oriented
+- Supports appends, but not random writes
+- Optionally supports a spatial index
+
+Goals are to be suitable for large volumes of static data, significantly faster than legacy formats without size limitations for contents or meta information and to be suitable for streaming/random access.
+
+## Geometries
+
+FlatGeobuf supports any vector geometry type defined in the OGC Simple Features specification (the same feature types supported by the WKB 2D geometry type enumeration). 
+
+:::caution
+GeoBuf geometries include the standard building blocks of `Point`, `LineString`, `Polygon`,`MultiPoint`, `MultiLineString`, `MultiPolygon`, and `GeometryCollection`, but also includes more infrequently types such as `CircularString`, `Surface`, and `TIN`` (Triangulated irregular network). These additional types are not supported by loaders.gl. 
+:::
+

+| Triangle           | 1     | ❌          |         |
+
+Note: Storing only geometries with the same type allows readers to know which geometry type is stored without scanning the entire file.
+
+## Schema
+
+Apart from geometry, FlatGeobuf supports columns with a range of types:
+
+| Type       | Description                                             |
+| ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `Byte`     | Signed 8-bit integer                                    |
+| `UByte`    | Unsigned 8-bit integer                                  |
+| `Bool`     | Boolean                                                 |

+| `Long`     | Signed 64-bit integer                                   |
+| `ULong`    | Unsigned 64-bit integer                                 |

+| `Double`   | Double precision floating point number                  |
+| `String`   | UTF8 string                                             |
+| `Json`     | General JSON type intended to be application specific   |
+| `DateTime` | ISO 8601 date time                                      |
+| `Binary`   | General binary type intended to be application specific |
+
+## Metadata
+
+:::caution
+loaders.gl currently does not currently expose all metadata.
+:::
+
+```typescript
+type Header {
+  name: string;                 // Dataset name
+  envelope: [double];           // Bounds
+  geometry_type: GeometryType;  // Geometry type (should be set to Unknown if per feature geometry type)
+  has_z: bool = false;           // Does geometry have Z dimension?
+  has_m: bool = false;           // Does geometry have M dimension?
+  has_t: bool = false;           // Does geometry have T dimension?
+  has_tm: bool = false;          // Does geometry have TM dimension?
+  columns: [Column];            // Attribute columns schema (can be omitted if per feature schema)
+  features_count: ulong;        // Number of features in the dataset (0 = unknown)
+  index_node_size: ushort = 16; // Index node size (0 = no index)
+  crs: Crs;                     // Spatial Reference System
+  title: string;                // Dataset title
+  description: string;          // Dataset description (intended for free form long text)
+  metadata: string;             // Dataset metadata (intended to be application specific and suggested to be structured fx. JSON)
+}
+
+type Crs {
+  org: string;                  // Case-insensitive name of the defining organization e.g. EPSG or epsg (NULL = EPSG)
+  code: int;                    // Numeric ID of the Spatial Reference System assigned by the organization (0 = unknown)
+  name: string;                 // Human readable name of this SRS
+  description: string;          // Human readable description of this SRS
+  wkt: string;                  // Well-known Text Representation of the Spatial Reference System
+  code_string: string;          // Text ID of the Spatial Reference System assigned by the organization in the (rare) case when it is not an integer and thus cannot be set into code
+}
+
+type Column {
+  name: string (required);      // Column name
+  type: ColumnType;             // Column type
+  title: string;                // Column title
+  description: string;          // Column description (intended for free form long text)
+  width: int = -1;              // Column values expected width (-1 = unknown) (currently only used to indicate the number of characters in strings)
+  precision: int = -1;          // Column values expected precision (-1 = unknown) as defined by SQL
+  scale: int = -1;              // Column values expected scale (-1 = unknown) as defined by SQL
+  nullable: bool = true;        // Column values expected nullability
+  unique: bool = false;         // Column values expected uniqueness
+  primary_key: bool = false;    // Indicates this column has been (part of) a primary key
+  metadata: string;             // Column metadata (intended to be application specific and suggested to be structured fx. JSON)
+}
+```
+
+Each column also has a string that can hold arbitrary metadata.
+
+## Spatial indexing
+
+:::caution
+loaders.gl currently does not support spatial filtering.
+:::
+
+FlatGeobuf files can optionally contain a spatial index. The spatial index is optional to allow the format to be efficiently written as a stream, support appending, and for use cases where spatial filtering is not needed.
+
+The spatial index clusters the data on a [packed Hilbert R-Tree](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilbert_R-tree#Packed_Hilbert_R-trees) enabling fast bounding box spatial filtering.
+
+ The Hilbert curve imposes a linear ordering on the data rectangles and then traverses the sorted list, assigning each set of C rectangles to a node in the R-tree. The final result is that the set of data rectangles on the same node will be close to each other in the linear order.
+
+### Optimizing Remotely Hosted FlatGeobufs
+
+If you’re accessing a FlatGeobuf file over HTTP, consider using a CDN to minimize latency.
+
+In particular, when using the spatial filter to get a subset of features, multiple requests will be made. Often round-trip latency, rather than throughput, is the limiting factor. A caching CDN can be especially helpful here.
 
-Goals are to be suitable for large volumes of static data, significantly faster than legacy formats without size limitations for contents or metainformation and to be suitable for streaming/random access.
+Fetching a subset of a file over HTTP utilizes Range requests. If the page accessing the FGB is hosted on a different domain from the CDN, Cross Origin policy applies, and the required Range header will induce an OPTIONS (preflight) request.
 
+Popular CDNs, like Cloudfront, support Range Requests, but don’t cache the requisite preflight OPTIONS requests by default. Consider enabling OPTIONS request caching . Without this, the preflight authorization request could be much slower than necessary.
