CF Cluster
The CF Cluster has expanded to include consideration of the more general problem of conventions and best practices for documenting scientific datasets in any format using a variety of dialects. This Category includes pages that are relevant to the CF Conventions.
Objectives
- Propose extensions to the CF naming conventions that are relevant to observational data
- Create use cases and interoperability demos that demonstrate the value of CF usage in remote sensing
- Provide tutorials at Federation meetings on the use of the CF conventions
Possible CF Extensions
- 1. Spectral bands
- Define as dimension rather than coordinate variable
- Pre-define band names
- Pre-define by wavelength/frequency range
- Proposal by Tom Whittaker
- 2. Data quality
- Modifiers such as "percent_cloud_free"
- 3. Level 3-specific
- Local/solar time
- 4. Level 2-specific
- Orbital parameters/swath geometry
- 5. Level 1-specific
- Calibration tables/engineering parameters
- 6, Cf/Radial
- Radial data conventions for radars and lidars
netCDF and ISO
Some ideas about the relationship between the [netCDF metadata model and ISO] are available. Input on those topics are welcome.
netCDF Templates for in-situ data types
NODC has recently proposed a set of netCDF Templates for in-situ data types. These are important potential extensions to the CF Conventions.
netCDF files with groups
Here is a netCDF-4 file created by NDBC which uses groups. The THREDDS link to the dataset is here.
Developing CF standard names for data from ADCPs and current meters
Proposing Standard Names for data from Current Meters and Profilers
CF-Aware Tools
H4CF Conversion Library- provides CF-compliant access to HDF4 and HDF-EOS2 files
