Dear all It would be very helpful if those who are familiar with OGC CRS WKT - several people contributed to this email thread in October - could contribute to the discussion in trac ticket 69. In this ticket, Phil Bentley has proposed a new attribute to allow WKT to be recorded in CF metadata. I am grateful to Phil for making the proposal, but I am concerned about our adopting this proposal because of possible inconsistency with other CF metadata. I have described some specific concerns in the ticket, and asked what specific requirements there are i.e. more use cases, because I think it is necessary to understand the implications of what we put in the CF standard. Unfortunately I don't know much about how the parts of the coordinate reference system are defined, but other people who read this email list must do, I am sure! If anyone can add further information and viewpoints to the discussion, it would help.
Best wishes and thanks Jonathan _______________________________________________ CF-metadata mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.cgd.ucar.edu/mailman/listinfo/cf-metadata
