Investigate use of cf-python #85

Open JimCircadian opened 1 year ago

JimCircadian commented 1 year ago

This is something to just hold onto, certainly it might simplify / complement the existing use of iris and xarray for certain activities (regridding, processing and plotting), but especially be good for generating the CF compliant output from icenet_output.

Have a nosey at cf-python and see how it compares. Consider it as an in-place or complementary library.

This would also help enable integration with MET Office UM output, should we be interested in that in the future.

Worth noting that NCAS-CMS are the originators of cfunits, which is already sporadically used in the library

Particularly like the cell methods inclusion for operations carried out by the library, which to my knowledge is not added via scitools iris or xarray
