Hi Nan,
I agree with Roy that CF should be the default namespace in a
CF compliant file...
What does that mean?
Until we agree on the meaning and mechanism of namespace-handling within
CF-compliant files and software, I fear that such statements do not
provide much guidance at the
Roy et al.,
Martin's comments on namespace highlight a concern I
identified whilst doing the research for the SeaDataNet
specification. Several communities have added large numbers
of both global and variable attributes with no indication of
namespace. Not only does this make it
Hi Stephen,
I may well be wrong, but I suspect that one of the reasons - perhaps the
main reason - why folks would like access to a stand-alone cfchecker
utility is the large size of their netcdf files. (It's certainly the
reason we use a local version.)
As you know only too well (from CMIP5),
Hi Stephane,
Would one or both of the following two standard names cover your use-case? The
first is in effect your residual, I think.

standard name: water_surface_height_above_reference_datum
canon units: m

Hi folks,
FYI, I have posted to the CF Trac site a technical proposal regarding
the suggested use of the well-known text format to encode additional
coordinate system properties in CF-netCDF files. You can find the
proposal at the following URL:

Hi all,
Polite request: can folks not attach names - well, at least not mine! -
to message subject lines.
Although it may temporarily boost one's google rating :-) it can also
give the impression that the named person endorses the views and
opinions expressed in the message. Which may or may not
Hi Ethan,
All good questions! I've provided some brief - and probably inadequate -
responses inline.
I've been working up an initial (reasonably concise) proposal covering
this topic, which potentially I could upload to the CF trac site later
this week. I guess it depends on whether folks would

Hi Ros,
This has prompted me to mention a CF compliance issue that I spotted
last week in connection with the netCDF files we're producing for the
CMIP5 project using the latest CMOR-2 library. When I validated one of
these files against the latest online version of the CF-checker utility
Hi Roy,
Would simply inventing an artificial new term to represent
sea+lakes+rivers be an option here? Presumably, back in the day, there
was no word for a land-locked body of fresh water so someone thought, I
know, I'll call it a 'lake'. Or whatever the latin/greek equivalent was
back then!
So
nature it wouldn't be well-known on day 1!
Cheers,
Phil
