[CF-metadata] can a cell method be an attribute of an auxiliary coordinate variable ?

 Dear All:
  
 i have a question ....
  
 We have a product containing an array of wind vectors (discrete sampling
geometry of type point) all derived from consecutive scenes of hyper
spectral imagery.
  
 One of the auxiliary coordinate variables is the air pressure. This air
pressure is the median value of the imagery pixels used to derive the wind
vector using a pattern recognition algorithm.
  
 There are no specific coordinates for the pixels that were used to derive
the wind vector, but it would be useful to identify that the air pressure
associated with the wind vector is a median value.
  
 Does it make sense to do the following in the specification of the air
pressure auxiliary coordinate variable ?
  
 float pressure (number_of_wind_vectors);
  
    standard_name = "air_pressure"
  
    cell_methods = "air_pressure: median"
  
  
 very respectfully.
  
 randy
