Hi.
The new grid_mapping scheme looks great! It accomplishes, in a more backward
compatible way, most of the things that I was suggesting.
Regarding Jonathan's reply to my previous comment:
If I read a temperature using a thermometer, the value does not have a
geographic coordinate system asso
Dear Randy
I agree with what you write. You could list the alternative sets of three
coordinates each all as auxiliary coord vars, and distinguish them with
standard_names; presumably you would want to propose some new standard_names.
That would be fine and quite simple to do.
In addition, you co
Hi.
The issue you are raising regarding coordinate systems and the grid_mapping
attribute is something I have been wondering about lately. Doesn't the
grid_mapping attribute more properly reside on the coordinate (or auxiliary
coordinate) variable? Strictly speaking, the data values don't hav
There is one thing I forgot to mention.
The CF conventions support grid mappings.Conceptually, grid mappings exist
for these space weather products. For example, J2000 is a specific type of
earth centered inertial coordinate system. Similarly, "body reference frame"
can be viewed as bein

Folks:
I have a situation where there is value in including multiple auxiliary
coordinate variablles for the same data variable. Specifically, I would like
to communicate that there are two distinct three dimensional cartesian
coordinates for each data value.
Do the current CF conventions pro
