Folks: the GOES-R ground system generates a derived motion winds product. Accompaning each wind speed & direction in the product is the amount of error associated withe the vector. This error is not a standard_error, but an error estimate based on a custom algorithm. Because this is not a standard_error, it would seem that using a standard_error standard_name modifier would be misleading. Any thoughts on how to represent this product-specific error in the NetCDF file ? (The best idead I could come up with so far is to establish an ancillary data relationwhip between the wind speed/direction variables and the error variable, and use the error variable's long_name to describe the error) very respectfully, randy
