Description
The NetCDF guide was created pulling content written by Doug Lindholm in Confluence. Confluence page
Some additional content is needed to provide context and explain how this file format is being used at LASP. I added a warning at the top of the guide noting that it's incomplete.
Details still needed:
Expand overview section and explain bullet points
Expand purpose section
Expand on options available
Expand on how to apply the guide
Include information for compliance checkers, especially since this is the convention being pushed by the NASA Earth Science Data Systems and that changes what's required vs. useful attributes

Research direction
Start with the existing NetCDF guide and compare it with the linked Confluence page. Review the overview, purpose, options, and application sections, then research the compliance-checker expectations associated with NASA Earth Science Data Systems. The work is complete when these sections provide the requested context and distinguish required attributes from useful ones.
