Add the following attribute to the Lambert_Conformal variable:
Lambert_Conformal:units = "m";
So the system knows the units of the false easting/northing. It should figure
it out from the x,y coordinates, but it doesnt right now.
Its also a hole in the CF standard that should be added.

Hi John
Please find attached an example netcdf file.
I think there are two issues:
(1) Horizontal Position:
Does IDV understand the grid_mapping variable, or do I need
to include 2-dimensional lat on lon variables as described in
the CF-conventions document?
With above, should work.
(2) Vertical Coordinate:
The physical height above MSL is given by the 3-dimensional
ZP variable. Is there a way to make IDV understand this?
because you have a valid zc coordinate variable, it uses that. How would you
imagine the IDS using the ZP coordinate?
Thanks for your help,
Juerg
