Comment (by mgschultz):
Thanks for the supporting comments. Here are the reference links for the
"original" feature types I have been looking at:
* THREDDS: probably best taken from the Java source code:
https://github.com/Unidata/thredds/blob/master/cdm/src/main/java/ucar/nc2/constants/FeatureType.java
* INSPIRE (I only copied the two grid definitions that are also refered to
in the data specification for atmospheric conditions and meteorological
features):
http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/documents/Data_Specifications/D2.10.2_CoverageTypes_v1.0rc2.pdf;
what they actually mean when they speak about features can be found at
http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/featureconcept/
* OGC: I am also not quite sure what is meant here. The "Web feature
service" is essentially "unbound", meaning that a special request
"GetFeatureTypes" shall return all feature types from a specific service.
These can be anything. Examples are "road", "bridge", "inWater_A", etc. If
you dig deep enough you may come up with some useful definitions which
could perhaps shed new light on the CF feature types. For example the
Water ML standard (http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/waterml) has
various time series classes...
