Re: [netcdf-java] Problem opening TimeSeries with NetCDF ToolsUI

Hi,

I am trying to save data from Mooring buoy (Time series) which have installed 
sensors with different sampling intervals. So, I have defined two time 
coordinates time1 and time2 and three variables, two with time1 coordinate 
(temp, temp3) and the other with time2 coordinate (temp2).

The NetCDF is compliant with "/Proposed/ CF Discrete Sampling Conventions 
<http://cf-pcmdi.llnl.gov/trac/wiki/PointObservationConventions>" section 9.3.4 and CF-1.4 (except the 
variable station_name with standard_name station_id). When I open it with the toolsUI as STATION feature type, 
selecting the "FeatureTypes" and "PointFeature" tab, it only displays:

    * The coordinate time1 (attached file PointFeatureData.png)
    * The variables with time1 as coordinate system; temp and temp3 (attached 
file PointFeatureData.png)

But, if the variable name of the time coordinate doesn't contain the string "time", it 
can't open the file and launch a window with the title "Mensaje" but without message 
(attached file Message.png).

It is fitting to say that, in the "CoordSys" tab, displays the coordinates 
variables correctly (attached file CoordSys.png)

I don't know if it's necessary to add some attributes to the NetCDF file or is 
a limitation of the NetCDF-Java library.

I have attached the example netcdf and cdl file.

Thanks

Hi Kristian:

I didnt think about this case in my implementation, of two seperate time 
coordinates, but it appears to be correctly formed. I will see if i can include 
it.

John
