Hi Aleksander:
I hope this message finds you well.
(1)
I have one overarching question.
Boiling down what you have written down, I think you are asking the CF standard
to be extended to include several swath feature types: multibandSwath,
multibandImageSwath, swath, imageSwath, profileSwath, multibandProfileSwath,
FORProfileSwath - as you allude to in the beginning of the paper. Is this
correct ?
One other issue worth mentioning …
(2)
In the interest in NOT letting a mistake we made in the application of CF
conventions to GOES-R products represented on a standard angular grid,
propagate to swaths ….
When you declare that projection_x_coordinate and projection_y_coordinate have
units = “radians”. This is not allowed because the canonical units for these
standard_names are meters. If I had to do it over again, I would have asked
for new standard names, something like projection_x_angular_coordinate and
projection_y_angular_coordinate.
