alinaliBQ opened a new issue, #47631: URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/47631
### Describe the enhancement requested the current behavior of ODBC is that it ignores the time zone field in Timestamp data, assumes all timestamp data is `UTC` during interpretation. The Arrow compute library should be able to handle converting non-UTC time zones to UTC, and that would require users to install the non-UTC time zone database on their machines (see https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/47504). This GitHub issue is for finding a workaround that doesn't require user to install the time zone database on their machines manually. - Possible solution: develop new function to interpret the Arrow timestamp seconds as the corresponding time zone, instead of using Arrow compute functions for this.
