Make lightning variables

Parameters:

ncfile - the netCDF file

group - the group (may be null)

seq - the sequence to add to

name - variable name

dataType - the data type

dims - dimenstion names

longName - the long_name attribute value (a description)

cfName - the CF standard_name attribute value (may be null)

units - the units attribute value (if null, not added)

type - coordinate axis type units (if null, not added)

Returns:

the variable

addLightningGlobalAttributes

protected void addLightningGlobalAttributes(NetcdfFile ncfile)

Add the global attributes. Specific implementations should call super and then add their own.

Parameters:

ncfile - the file to add to
