-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [OSGeo-Standards] FYI: CF-netCDF Data Model Extension Standard [11-165r1] was approved a new OGC standard Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2013 11:55:31 -0700 From: Carl Reed <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> As of December 17, the CF-netCDF Data Model Extension Standard [11-165r1] was approved a new OGC standard. Congratulations to the CF-NetCDF SWG! The vote results are: Yes: 40 Abstain: 1 The OGC netCDF encoding supports electronic encoding of geospatial data, that is, digital geospatial information representing space and time-varying phenomena. This standard specifies the CF-netCDF data model extension that specifies the CF-netCDF data model mapping onto the ISO 19123 coverage schema. This standard deals with multi-dimensional gridded data and multi-dimensional multi-point data. In particular, this extension standard encoding profile is limited to multi-point, and regular and warped grids; however, irregular grids are important in the CF-netCDF community and work is underway to expand the CF-netCDF to encompass other coverages types, including irregular gridded datasets. After final edits, the document should be published as an official OGC standard in the next few days.
