CF Plugin (IOOS Compliance Checker)

The IOOS Compliance Checker ships with a native CF (Climate & Forecast) metadata plugin. Many of those CF checks are directly relevant to WCRP projects (CMIP, CORDEX, …). To avoid redundancy, we did not duplicate these validations inside ESGF-QC.

Where to find detailed CF checks
