Hi Ben and Jon,
In the last 2 weeks I have worked on the WCS 2.0 extension for
CF-netCDF3.0. The first part of the specification introduces a new
(and refined) version of the CF-netCDF3 data model mapping to ISO 19123.
Ben, in my opinion that part could be an excerpt of the OGC CF-netCDF
specification.
The second part of the document, defines the CF-netCDF3 data model
mapping to the GML-Coverage profile used for the WCS 2.0.
Presently, I am working on the WCS 2.0 service model extension.
