>             Project: Apache Sedona
>          Issue Type: Improvement

>            Priority: Major

> sernetcdf contains only two classes plus unit tests. It's under a Apache license.
>  
> We could merge the code into Sedona and drop the dependency. This would have several benefits:
>  * sernetcdf is a shaded jar which bundles outdated versions of several libraries. The shading makes it impossible for Sedona to control its dependency graph. Removing the shaded jar would allow folding of ST_AsEWKB and ST_AsBinary. See [https://github.com/apache/incubator-sedona/pull/704]
>  * sernetcdf is not under Apache guidance regarding maintenance, releases and other processes. Issues in the code would be easier to fix if it's maintained by the Sedona community.
