Direct Known Subclasses:

GridCoordSys
```
public class CoordinateSystem
extends Object
```
A CoordinateSystem specifies the coordinates of a Variable's values. Mathematically it is a vector function F from index space to Sn:
```
  F(i,j,k,...) -> (S1, S2, ...Sn)
  where i,j,k are integers, and S is the set of reals (R) or Strings.
 
```
The components of F are just its coordinate axes:
```
  F = (A1, A2, ...An)
    A1(i,j,k,...) -> S1
    A2(i,j,k,...) -> S2
    An(i,j,k,...) -> Sn
 
```
Concretely, a CoordinateSystem is a set of coordinate axes, and an optional set of coordinate transforms. The domain rank of F is the number of dimensions it is a function of. The range rank is the number of coordinate axes.
An important class of CoordinateSystems are georeferencing Coordinate Systems, that locate a Variable's values in space and time. A CoordinateSystem that has a Lat and Lon axis, or a GeoX and GeoY axis and a Projection CoordinateTransform will have isGeoReferencing() true. A CoordinateSystem that has a Height, Pressure, or GeoZ axis will have hasVerticalAxis() true.
Further CoordinateSystems specialization is done by "data type specific" classes such as ucar.nc2.ft2.coverage.grid.GridCoordSys.
