# Requirement Summary
[Appendix F: Grid 
Mappings](http://cfconventions.org/cf-conventions/cf-conventions.html#appendix-grid-mappings)
 states
> The attributes which describe the ellipsoid and prime meridian may be

I think this should be more specific.
# Technical Proposal Summary
Provide a list of attributes which meet these criteria.
# Benefits
Explicit is better than implicit.
# Status Quo
Currently attributes describing the ellipsoid and its prime meridian can be 
included in any grid mapping. This would not change, but an ambiguity would be 
removed.
# Detailed Proposal
TBD
