@JimBiardCics How about specifying the axis attributes in the coordinate 
variable attributes?

For example:
```
  double y(y);
    y:standard_name = "projection_y_coordinate";
    y:axis_order = 1
    y:axis_name = "Northing"
    y:axis_abbreviation = "Y"
    y:axis_direction = "north"
    y:axis_unit = "metre"
  double x(x);
    x:standard_name = "projection_x_coordinate";
    x:axis_order = 0
    x:axis_name = "Easting"
    x:axis_abbreviation = "X"
    x:axis_direction = "east"
    x:axis_unit = "metre"
  float Temperature(y, x);
    Temperature:units = "K";
    ....
    Temperature:grid_mapping = "Lambert_Conformal: x y";
```
Side note: I have found in my experience the explicit is better than implicit.
