Hi Ghansham,

I don't have any such data, but I guess we could do something like:


short ImageData(band, x, y);
  ImageData:coordinates = "band lat lon time wavelength";
  ImageData:valid_min = 1s;
  ImageData:_FillValue = 0s;
  ImageData:missing_value = 0s;
  ImageData:add_offset = 34.02f, 35.02f, 36.02f;
  ImageData:scale_factor = 1.54f, 1.64f, 1.74f;
  ImageData:radiance_formula = "ImageData * radiance_factor +
radiance_offset";
  ImageData:radiance_factor = 2.08f, 2.09f, 2.10f;
  ImageData:radiance_offset = 0.3f, 0.6f, 0.9f;
  ImageData:brightness_temperature_formula = "bt_offset + radiance *
bt_coef1 + radiance^2 * bt_coef2";
  ImageData:bt_offset = 1.0f, 1.5f, 1.8f;
  ImageData:bt_coef1 = 2.0f, 2.5f, 2.8f;
  ImageData:bt_coef2 = 3.0f, 3.5f, 3.8f;

Maybe we should add something like formula_terms also ? Or is there
something more general to describe formulas ?

Best regards,
Martin
