All,
Thanks for all the comments, I have tried to capture as below -
Parameter Name
Standard Name
Definition
Canonical Units
Platform Heave
Platform_Height_above_mean_sea_Level
Standard names for platform describe the motion and orientation of the
vehicle from which observations are made e.g. aeroplane, ship or satellite.
Height above mean sea Level is the linear vertical (up/down) distance of the
platform in respect to the mean sea level.
m
Platform Heave Rate
Tendency_of_Platform_Height_above_mean_sea_Level
Standard names for platform describe the motion and orientation of the
vehicle from which observations are made e.g. aeroplane, ship or satellite.
"tendency_of_X" means derivative of X with respect to time. Height above mean
sea Level is the linear vertical (up/down) distance of the platform in respect
to the mean sea level.
m s-1
Please let me know if you have further comments
Thanks
Steve

Subject: Re: [CF-metadata] Platform Heave
Whatever name you come up with, the canonical unit of the heave rate shouldn't
be "ms-1", but rather one of the following:
m s-1
m/s
m.s-1
I favor "m/s".
Regards,
Steve Emmerson

Hi
I am trying to find the CF name for heave of a vessel or platform.
platform_roll_angle and platform_pitch_angle already exist but nothing on heave
Would be the following be acceptable
Platform_heave (m)
Platform_heave_rate (ms-1)
Standard names for platform describe the motion and orientation of the vehicle
from which observations are made e.g. aeroplane, ship or satellite.
Kind Regards,
Steve
