-The ``x`` and ``y`` coordinates are generated out of the file's metadata
-(``bounds``, ``width``, ``height``), and they can be understood as cartesian
-coordinates defined in the file's projection provided by the ``crs`` attribute.
-``crs`` is a PROJ4 string which can be parsed by e.g. `pyproj`_ or rasterio.
-See :ref:`/examples/visualization_gallery.ipynb#Parsing-rasterio-geocoordinates`
-for an example of how to convert these to longitudes and latitudes.
-
-
-Additionally, you can use `rioxarray`_ for reading in GeoTiff, netCDF or other
-GDAL readable raster data using `rasterio`_ as well as for exporting to a geoTIFF.
+GDAL readable raster data using `rasterio`_  such as GeoTIFFs can be opened using the `rioxarray`_ extension.
 `rioxarray`_ can also handle geospatial related tasks such as re-projecting and clipping.
