#86: Allow coordinate variables to be scaled integers ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: [email protected] | Owner: [email protected] Type: defect | Status: new Priority: medium | Milestone: Component: cf-conventions | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: coordinate variables, scaled inetegers ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by [email protected]): Folks: Almost a month has elapsed since the last correspondence. The subject of this trac item captures the intent of this change "Allow coordinate variables to be scaled integers". To update the CF metadata conventions standard document requires changing a two rows in Table A.1 Attributes in Appendix A. (1) In the "add_offset" row, the "Use" column needs to change from "D" to "C, D" (2) In the "scale_factor" row, the "Use" column needs to change from "D" to "C, D" In addition, the following statement will be added to the "Description" cell in Table A.1 Attributes for attributes scale_factor and add_offset. "The use of packed coordinate variables is allowed, but not preferred to primarily support use cases where dataset sizing constraints exist." I support this enhancement. Does the conventions committee support this enhancement ? very respectfully, randy -- Ticket URL: <https://cf-pcmdi.llnl.gov/trac/ticket/86#comment:10> CF Metadata <http://cf-pcmdi.llnl.gov/> CF Metadata This message came from the CF Trac system.
