During our work on GeoPackage, a question came up: would it make sense to zip a GeoPackage file? To reduce the file size for download?

That's what we've done at NLS Finland.

Contour Geopackage -> zip about 12 GB | gpkg 34 GB
Topographic Map Database -> zip about 26 GB | gpkg73 Gt

@reinij I guess we would need, ideally, an official media type for a zipped geopackage file.

Depending on the outcomes, we can also think of including the zipped GPKG in the INSPIRE Registry

Yes you're right. I'll reopen the issue so we can follow up.
