Folks: the GOES-R ground system generates a derived motion winds product.
Accompaning each wind speed & direction in the product is the amount of
error associated withe the vector. This error is not a standard_error, but
an error estimate based on a custom algorithm. Because this is not a
standard_error, it would seem that using a standard_error standard_name
modifier would be misleading. Any thoughts on how to represent this
product-specific error in the NetCDF file ? (The best idead I could come up
with so far is to establish an ancillary data relationwhip between the wind
speed/direction variables and the error variable, and use the error
variable's long_name to describe the error) very respectfully, randy
