Template:NetcdfGlossary

{{#default_form:}}

This is the "netcdf" or math symbol template. It's easier to use the form. Alternatively, the template can be called in the following way (recommended for experts only!)

{{NetcdfGlossary
|parameter_name=
|symbol=
|description=
|standard_name=
|units=
|cf-compliant=
|instrument_type=
|glossary_type=
}}

The instrument_type assigns a category, hence why it’s preferable to use the form’s drop-down menu to avoid spelling mistakes when generating a comma separated list of these choices:

• Velocity point-measurements
• Velocity profilers
• Shear probes

There's also a glossary_type field that assigns subcategories. It's not accessible through the template but passed using the form.
