Dear all,
Does anyone remember, why we didn't allow the "bounds" attribute to be
attached to a scalar coordinate variable? Currently CF requires the
user to include a dimension a size one if he wants to define coordinate
bounds:
"The advantage of using a coordinate variable is that all its attributes
can be used to describe the single-valued quantity, including boundaries."
Is there any good reason for this restriction on use of a scalar
coordinate variable?
[Note that we also, don't allow an "axis" attribute to be attached to a
scalar coordinate variable, and I also don't remember why we did this.]
Best regards,
Karl
