Ive updated the docs at
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf-java/reference/StandardCoordinateTransforms.html
Thanks for the report.

Rich,
it must have been the netcdf-java package where I have seen these
standard-names. The description on the netcdf-java pages are outdated,
still using formula_terms a and b. I just checked the code, and that
is up to date working with the formula_term -array C(k).
It'll be good to have an official version. Thanks for picking this up
again.

Heiko,
We worked with John Caron several years ago to get these into the CDM
in the NetCDF-Java library, so if you have g1 or g2 coordinates they
will work with codes that use NetCDF-java (like the Matlab NCTOOLBOX
and Unidata's IDV), and I remember we drafted up some documentation
to submit to CF, but looks like we dropped the ball. I'll pick it
up again.

Hi,
I'm currently working with ROMS ocean model files. The model uses a
generalized ocean_s coordinate as defined by
https://www.myroms.org/wiki/index.php/Vertical_S-coordinate .
The same page says that their s_coordinate is covered by standard_names
ocean_s_coordinate_g1
ocean_s_coordinate_g2
and I believe I have seen at least the g1 case in a draft of a CF
convention
some month ago. Both cases are also implemented in the netcdf-java
package
with above standard_names:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf-java/reference/StandardCoordinateTransforms.html
But I cannot find any of those names any longer, neither in CF-1.6
nor in
the standard_names tables.
Does somebody remember what happened to these vertical coordinates?
According to the ROMS Wiki, the standard_names have been added in March
2009.
Best regards,
Heiko
