Re: [CF-metadata] geostationary vs vertical_perspective in CF 1.7.

2014-11-18 Thread Randy Horne
John:

geostationary projection and vertical perspective projections are not the same.

an example of a vertical projection image is one taken by a camera in space, 
which is not necessarily at the equator, and the data for the entire image is 
observed using a single exposure.

the geostationary projection is that associated with scanning imagers from 
geostationary orbit where each image pixel covers a fixed number of 
radians/degrees in east/west and north/south relative to the camera’s aperture.

very respectfully,

randy

[CF-metadata] Problem with the cfchecker app

2014-11-18 Thread Jim Biard

Hi.

I'm having trouble getting the cfchecker python app to run correctly. Is 
Rosalyn Hatcher maintaining it? If not, who? Is there a location where 
bugs are reported, etc?


Grace and peace,

Jim

[CF-metadata] geostationary vs vertical_perspective in CF 1.7.

2014-11-18 Thread John Caron
CF TRAC ticket 72 defines "geostationary projection", accepted for 1.7.

1) I _think_ that "Vertical Perspective" is an earlier version of this, and
it should be deprecated in favor of "geostationary". Does anyone have a
different opinion?

2) The draft 1.7 does not yet include it, so its been hard to refer users
to it.

Re: [CF-metadata] Correct mail group address?

Yes, keep on using the ucar.edu one as before.  The llnl.gov list
has been there for very many years, but never has been something you
would send mail to.

The security people here don't like something (I don't know what)
about kitt.llnl.gov.  So I am right now in the middle of migrating
the Trac system to pcmdi6.llnl.gov.  I'll let you all know when it's
available there.

BTW,
the TRAC system is either down or slow enough to time out.
