For event data which is not imaged, such as an event list, probably the
best one can do is have t_dim specify the number of events. The spatial
coverage would be specified with s_fov and the spectral coverage with
em_min/max. The binning on the spatial and spectral axes is meaningless
and should be zero. If a precomputed image for the observation is also
provided, that would have all the dim values and would share the same
obs_id.
