Dear all,

Here at the British Atmospheric Data Centre (BADC) we are adopting the CF
(Climate and Forecasts) Convention for our NetCDF files. We are thinking of
producing a piece of software to verify that any given file conforms to the
convention. However, one of you may already have produced this.

Do you know if anyone has produced a CF Convention file checker?

Kind regards,

Ag
