Hi Martin,
Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that we would do away with the histogram standard names - these would be retained, of course. I just meant that we both want to store one extra bit of information (maximum number of obs or, equivalently, missing number of obs) and that in both use cases ('histogram_of...' and 'number_of...') this could be in an ancillary variable, for which we'd need a new standard name. Does that make more sense?
I appreciate that your users wish to display the number of missing values alongside the counts for the different bins, however I'd argue that this information is ancillary to the histogram itself (in the same way that the number of missing days is ancillary to a count of days of air frost) and should be stored as such in the netCDF file (rather than in a 'pseudo-bin').
Regards,
Dan

Hi Dan,
it is a similar concept, but the aim here is to record it in a histogram. We have a standard name for the histogram .. I'm not sure why you think we need to change this. Perhaps it would be possible to do away with "histogram_" standard names and just use "number_of_observations", but I'm afraid I don't see much merit in that approach.
For you use case, I can certainly see that there could be a case for a "number_of_missing_observations" standard name, but it doesn't help with the specification of the histogram that I want to store.
regards,
Martin

Hi Martin,
Thanks for your suggestion - I can see how this could work for our data. However I can also see that having to parse the 'interval' text from the 'cell_methods' comment field and combine that with the bounds from the time coordinate is not especially user-friendly! It would be much easier if we could store 'maximum_number_of_observations' (or 'number_of_missing_observations') as well.
I guess the reason your suggestion does not work for your histograms is that there is no obvious place to record the sampling intervals (angular and distance) of the radar data. However, if I'm understanding this correctly, all the user really needs is the total number of data bins in one sweep of the radar. I'd argue that this is similar in concept to 'maximum_number_of_observations' i.e. maybe we just need a new standard name that we can both use. What do you think?
Apologies if I haven't fully grasped the complexities of your data.
Regards,
Dan

Hello Dan,
I think there is a method for recording the number of valid observations in each data point, which, if I've understood correctly, would meet the requirement you are describing: using an "ancillary_variable" with standard name "number_of_observations". I don't think there is a method for explicitly recording missing values, but you can use "interval" (in the "cell_methods" comment) to specify the interval of input data which, together with the duration of the calculation, will tell you the maximum amount of input values available.
In your use-case the number of missing values would be part of the ancillary information, in my use case it is the data itself -- the users want a histogram which includes a count of failed retrievals,
regards,
Martin

Subject: RE: [CF-metadata] Missing data bins in histograms
Dear Martin/Jonathan/Jim,
I appreciate that this discussion is focussed on histograms, however I wonder if there is a wider issue here i.e. how should one record the number of missing values for any extensive quantity?
For example, we use number_of_days_with_air_temperature_below_threshold to store counts of days of air frost (computed from station observations of daily minimum temperature). The threshold is specified using a scalar coordinate variable called 'air_temperature' with a value of 0.0. The counts of air frost are for periods of months, seasons or years and, inevitably, the values for some periods for some stations are based on incomplete data. Is there a recommended method for recording the number of missing observations for each data point (apologies if I've missed this in the conventions)? If so then maybe the same approach could be used for histograms too. If not then my feeling is that whatever solution you propose should be applicable to all extensive quantities (i.e. all quantities that can be derived from a set of constituent observations). Having a special 'bin' might work for histogram data but would not work for other variables so I think a different approach is required.
My feeling is that the number of missing values is sort of like metadata i.e. it's telling you something about the quality of the data itself. Would an ancillary variable suit this purpose?
Regards,
Dan

Subject: Re: [CF-metadata] Missing data bins in histograms
Dear Jonathan,
I looked at "valid_range", and also "actual_range", but I believe that the definitions of either of these would have to be changed to accommodate this usage, and we would run into the problem that Jim raised in connection with my earlier suggestion of using "missing_value": such changes can break assumptions made by existing software. Data outside the "valid_range" may well be automatically rejected by a user application before the data gets to any CF aware libraries. For instance, python netCDF4 at version 1.3.0 and 1.3.1 automatically removes data outside the valid_range, giving the user a masked array. There is some discussion of this here:
https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf4-python/issues/748.
<
https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf4-python/issues/748>It is possible to circumvent this behaviour by changing the auto-masking setting in python netCDF4, and the NUG does suggest using values outside the "valid_range" as flags. NUG also suggests using the missing_value attribute to list such flag values ... but Jim has pointed out that such an approach is likely to cause problems with many applications. This is a complex area because the meaning of "missing_value" in NUG has evolved. Up until CF 1.5 it appears that a "missing_value" meant, unambiguously, missing data. The current CF appears to changed this in line with NUG so that different usages are now permissible, but I still agree with Jim's objection. We can't, I'm sure, at this stage, follow an approach which depends on users being able to control the auto-masking settings (it is a simple call to the "set_auto_mask" method if you are using the python netCDF4 library directly ... but may not be available to users who are working with applications buil
t on the library).
I wanted to use a new standard name for the hight bins because of the fact that the value in the first bin, which I have set to -9999., is not a height. This data point needs to have a valid floating point value to conform to the rules for a coordinate array, but, unlike the rest of the array, it should not be interpreted as height. This is signalled by the presence of an auxiliary coordinate -- but I'm not sure that that is adequate. Applications and users are entitled to believe that a variable which has standard name "height" really refers to height, without having to check all the auxiliary coordinates to see if there is something there which modifies the meaning of the variable. The standard name "height_bins" would signal that they must look in the auxiliary coordinate.
Do you agree with the necessity and appropriateness of the new name of "bin_status_flag" which I have suggested for the auxiliary coordinate?
regards,
Martin

Dear Martin
I agree that an alternative which would not require a change to the convention is to attach a string-valued aux coord variable. However, the flags are much more economical and seem natural, as you say.
As I said in my last email, I feel that it's better to keep the standard name as it is, despite the presence of a special value in it which isn't really a coordinate value. Maybe a valid_range could be specified, with the special value outside the range? I'm not sure if that would count as an error, but it is not the same as reinterpreting missing data, which would be problematic.
Best wishes
Jonathan

Using missing_value in this way will produce unexpected results in a number of existing software packages. If the minor modification to CF to designate flag attributes to be used on coordinate variables doesn't seem like an acceptable solution for one reason or another, I think we should define a new convention that doesn't add contradictory interpretations of existing attributes.

The NetCDF dimension would be an index, and the array of values defining the bins would be an auxiliary coordinate which, I believe, is not subject to the rules on monotonicity and missing values which apply to NetCDF dimensions. There may be a need for some clarifications, but I think this approach would be much closer to the current convention that any change in the specification for non-auxiliary coordinate variables.

A variable with this standard name may include a special bin for the count or frequency of missing data. This should be indicated by setting the value of that bin and its bounds to equal the missing_value of the variable. If there is no missing value bin, it is recommended that the term 'height' be used instead."
