[CF-metadata] Using add_offset & scale_factor with coordinate variables

From: Randy Horne <rhorne>

Folks:

Appendix A, Table A.1 in the CF conventions state that add_offset and scale_factor can be used with data variables, but not coordinate variables.

For the data producing system I am working (GOES-R Ground Segment) it is particularly convenient to make use of add_offset and scale_factor with our coordinate variables.

Is there an issue with changing the conventions to allow this ?

very respectfully,

randy
