Dear Heiko > 1. height above ground has standard_name of height, as you say
> 2. height above mean sea level I don't think we have a standard name for this yet, but height_above_sea_level would be consistent with existing names. For example, there is a stdname of sea_surface_height_above_sea_level. > 3. depth below surface is depth, as you say. > 4. geometrical height What does this mean? i.e. height above what reference level? altitude is height above the geoid. Maybe that is geometrical height? > And for pressure vertical coordinates: is the correct standard_name > 'air_pressure'? Yes. > Could these eventually be mentioned in the Convention besides the > standard_names for dimensionless vertical coordinates? This sounds to me like another possible entry for a FAQ. Would that be a good idea? Best wishes Jonathan _______________________________________________ CF-metadata mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.cgd.ucar.edu/mailman/listinfo/cf-metadata
