cfunits

A Python interface to UNIDATA's UDUNITS-2 package with CF extensions.

Store, combine and compare physical units and convert numeric values to different units.

Units are as defined in UNIDATA's UDUNITS-2 package, except for reference time units (such as 'days since 2000-12-1' in the 'proleptic_gregorian' calendar), which are handled by the cftime Python package.

In addition, some units are either new to, modified from, or removed from the standard UDUNITS-2 database in order to be more consistent with the CF conventions.
