Adds `aszarr` param to the `read_box()` method:
python
def read_box(
self,
bBox: BBox,
outer_points: Union[bool, int] = False,
aszarr: bool = False,
) -> Union[np.ndarray, zarr.Array]:
"""Reads a boxed sections of the geotiff to a zarr/numpy array
Args:
bBox (BBox): A bounding box
outer_points (Union[bool, int]): Takes an int (n) that gets extra n layers of points/pixels that directly surround the bBox. Defaults to False.
safe (bool): If True, returns a zarr array. If False, forces a returns as a numpy array by putting the data into memory. Defaults to False.
Returns:
np.ndarray: zarr array of the geotiff file

((x_min, y_min), (x_max, y_max)) = self.get_int_box(
bBox, outer_points=outer_points
)
tiff_array = self.read()
boxed_array = tiff_array[y_min:y_max, x_min:x_max]
if aszarr:
