Compliance checker
This utility checks that a netCDF file which you supply complies with the CF conformance requirements and recommendations.
Conformance
Each version of the CF conventions document is accompanied by a conformance document which lists the requirements and recommendations that could be verified by the compliance checker or any program with a similar aim. For any
recommendation which is not followed, the checker gives a warning; for any
requirement which is not met, it reports an error.
