Hi.
Another thing to consider is that attributes can hold multiple elements
(array attributes). You might consider whether or not you could use this
feature to capture your information without adding more complex
structures. It won't have strict CF compliance, since CF doesn't
consider it.
Grace and peace,
Jim

Hi Markus,
ncecat's group-aggregation mode was designed for issues like this.
In this case it will produce a netCDF4 output file with each station,
and all the global metadata from that station, in its own group.
This is not CF-compliant because it uses groups, though each group
will be as CF-compliant as its corresponding input file.
