We are detecting cloudy and clear sky pixels using a combination passive
infrared and visible satellite imagery. The community typically calls this
product a cloud mask, i.e. byte value 0=clear sky pixel, 1=cloudy pixel. I
am reviewing the CF Standard Name table and I see no name that would
That would work for me

height_at is fine by me which matches a greater number of the examples
you provide. Since I haven't heard any major disagreements with my
proposal, what's the next step for getting these names approved by The
Grand Council of Naming?

Hello:
My group is producing a climate data record (CDR) of satellite-based cloud
property retrievals in support of the NOAA CDR program. When we do our
retrievals, we do not directly retrieve parameters at cloud top but rather at
some depth within the cloud where the infrared radiation is
