#74: Allow sharing of ancillary variables among multiple data variables ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: [email protected] | Owner: [email protected] Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: medium | Milestone: Component: cf-conventions | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: "ancillary data" "standard name modifiers" ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by graybeal): The problem brings its own solution. it should be fine to let multiple variables share the same ancillary variable, if it makes sense in all respects. For it to make sense when the standard_name needs to have the units of the data variable, all the variables need to have the same units. Looks to me like it makes sense for detection minimum to allow this, in some environments it would be a common use case. But I can't figure out a sensible use case for one standard_error variable for multiple variables! -- Ticket URL: <https://cf-pcmdi.llnl.gov/trac/ticket/74#comment:38> CF Metadata <http://cf-pcmdi.llnl.gov/> CF Metadata This message came from the CF Trac system.
