The page you identify as "the ACDD page" is not an ESIP or ACDD page. It is a Unidata page describing NetCDF.

Given that the description of Coordinates on that page says that it is trying to follow the CF standard, I think you should contact Unidata to ask them about capitalization.

Best wishes.

Dear ESIP,


the ACDD page https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs/attribute_conventions.html lists a "Coordinates" attribute (upper-case "C") and says that this is taken from the CF Convention<http://cfconventions.org/cf-conventions/cf-conventions.html#attribute-appendix>, where it appears as "coordinates" (lower-case "c"). Is this a typo? From other attributes in the list, it looks as though the terms are intended to be case-sensitive,

Martin Juckes
