Comment (by mgschultz):
Dear Jonathan,
this text looks good to me -- except that the relation between the data
array dimensions and the domain axes is not stated at all. If I understood
the discussion correctly, then this is considered an aspect of the
implementation. That's fine, but the data model description should say
this! I expect that many people who wish to use the data model will wonder
about this relation.
Here is my suggestion:
'''Field construct'''
[...]
Collectively, the domain axis, dimension coordinate, auxiliary coordinate,
cell measure and cell method constructs describe the domain in which the
data resides. Thus a field construct can be regarded as a domain with data
in that domain. ''The relation between domain axes and the shape of the
data array must be defined by the implementing software.''
Best regards,
Martin
