Description Of Changes
In further testing of reading a data file of METAR with the new parser functionality, the naming convention used in that portion of the code was not captured in the declarative plotting code for the time dimension name and the station dimension name. I've added a few other options and made the loop-up more robust. In addition, I raise an
AttributeError
if one is not found in the set list. It is relatively easy to remedy if a data frame does not contain the right name by either re-naming a column or creating a new column with one of the names. With the latest additions we cover what I know to be the most common names from the available data sources. This could likely be made more robust in the future, but without a CF convention used for surface observation data, it will be a larger lift.Added some tests to cover new functionality.
