Dear Roy,
Many thanks for checking through all the text.
We seem to have reached full consensus in this discussion, so all the platform names are accepted and will be included in the 15th October standard name table update. Altogether this will result in the addition of 28 new names, 3 aliases and 17 updated definitions. For the full list, please see the following link to the standard names editor:

I agree that we can always do further work to improve names and definitions, but also that now is the time to draw this particular discussion to a close. Thank you again to all those who submitted comments - these names are very much the result of community effort.
Best wishes,
Alison

Subject: Re: Platform Heave
Dear Alison,
I have read through the definitions and can see no errors.
As always when doing this, one sees possible 'improvements' but these are not critical and so are best kept to myself or we will never reach end game with this proposal.
Cheers, Roy.
I have now retired but will continue to be active through an Emeritus Fellowship using this e-mail address.

Subject: [CF-metadata] Platform Heave
Dear Jim, Roy, Nan, Jonathan, et al.,
I have drawn together what I hope is the final list for the platform names.
We seem to be agreed on the need to have triplets of names to cope with opposite sign conventions and the case where the sign convention is unknown. I've followed Roy's comment
http://mailman.cgd.ucar.edu/pipermail/cf-metadata/2018/020540.html<
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__mailman.cgd.ucar.edu_pipermail_cf-2Dmetadata_2018_020540.html&d=DwMDaQ&c=qKdtBuuu6dQK9MsRUVJ2DPXW6oayO8fu4TfEHS8sGNk&r=Vm7o2ZGxPkkqRuPs8nVMVQ&m=yxU2ft7s8yoUQ1u9bY4SUXLtyGUrJTbibS8jrcxKjbw&s=WnxV3yG0AaijdfL3R06H24dbHMtimAUqWnbI37aMBOY&e=> regarding cross-referencing in the definitions, i.e. adding the statement to only choose the unsigned names if the convention is truly unknown. I plan to create aliases for some of the existing names as follows:
platform_yaw_angle -> platform_yaw
platform_pictch_angle -> platform_pitch
platform_roll_angle > platform_roll
to make them consistent with the new names. In addition to Jim's 12th September proposals (
http://mailman.cgd.ucar.edu/pipermail/cf-metadata/2018/020513.html<
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__mailman.cgd.ucar.edu_pipermail_cf-2Dmetadata_2018_020513.html&d=DwMDaQ&c=qKdtBuuu6dQK9MsRUVJ2DPXW6oayO8fu4TfEHS8sGNk&r=Vm7o2ZGxPkkqRuPs8nVMVQ&m=yxU2ft7s8yoUQ1u9bY4SUXLtyGUrJTbibS8jrcxKjbw&s=LPHz-jcf2Xrt6njE3SJUpz6R4i071q4C7G7HSYa4xtI&e=>), new names for platform_sway, platform_sway_rate, platform_surge and platform_surge_rate are needed to provide complete triplets of names for all the quantities.
The definitions of the new quantities are all based on Jim's text, with the 'platform' description moved to the end. 'Instrument' has been added to the list of platforms as I think this was requested by Nan earlier in the discussion. (I think we can regard an 'instrument' as a way to mount one or more 'sensors'). The definitions of all existing platform names will be updated for consistency.
On a grammatical point, I noticed that the definitions of yaw/pitch/roll/surge rate in Jim's message all said "Yaw/pitch/roll/surge rate *might not* include changes to the "at rest" position of the platform ..." whereas the definitions of sway/heave rate said "Sway/heave rate *may not* include changes to the "at rest" position of the platform ...". I have changed all the definitions to say "might not" instead of "may not" as I think the latter could sound like we are prohibiting the inclusion of changes to the "at rest" position, which I don't think is the intention. Please correct me if this is wrong!
I have added all the names into the standard names editor:

To save copying and pasting all the text into this message, please use the link to check through the full list. N.B. You can refine the filters to view smaller subsets of names together, e.g., 'platform_sway'. If no objections or suggestions for further changes are received, the names will be accepted in their current form and published on 15th October.
Best wishes,
Alison
