Dear Jonathan, Thank you for looking things over. Makes sense that we would add a new ‘geometry’ attribute that would point at the geometry container variable and be in both the node coordinates and the data variables. Yes, the 0 or 1 is meant to be inside or outside. We thought that would be

Dear Dave Thanks for this > https://github.com/twhiteaker/netCDF-CF-simple-geometry/blob/master/README.md I think your explanation of what is needed and why is very clear, and I like the present form of the proposal. You asked me what I'd expect the bounds attribute to point to. This is my only r
