Dear Thomas

> Our team was under the impression that standard names were required for CF compliance.

Jim's correct that standard_names are optional.

The flag_meanings and flag_values attributes may be useful with your data, to
make them more self-describing. Those attributes are a way to provide the
translation of your codes into language.

Best wishes

Jonathan
