There have been a few similar efforts. One is the work in NCO -- not about CF per-se but about a way to translate the netcdf data model to json -- once you've done that, the CF rules are pretty much the same.
There was also an effort by Pedro Nunes at NESDIS/STAR: http://www.space-research.org/blog/star_json.html and NCO now supports something (not sure the final state of that). The discussion on sourceforge is here: https://sourceforge.net/p/nco/discussion/9829/thread/8c4d7e72/ I'm not sure the status of either of those efforts, but hopefully we won't have a third one! -Chris On Tue, Jul 25, 2017 at 12:20 PM, David Johnson <d.john...@metocean.co.nz> wrote: > Hello All, > > Apologies if this is wrong place to post this.
