Hi all,

I'm wondering if someone can help me sort out the most proper way to handle 
something.  I'm processing some datasets and validating them for CF compliance 
using the CF Checker and I'm running into a problem with variables that are NOT 
dimensionless, but still really don't have a "valid" unit.  For example:

For the dataset here:  
http://hfrnet.ucsd.edu:8080/thredds/dodsC/HFRNet/USEGC/6km/hourly/RTV

The "site_code" is missing a "units" attribute – but I'm stumped as to what it 
should be.  Another example in the same dataset is the "procParams" variable.

The nearest "solution" I could decipher is to assign the "units = 1", but that 
seems less than proper as that unit is (I believe) supposed to be reserved for 
fractions and the like.


Any thoughts/solutions someone might have would be much appreciated.

Best,
Chris
