I think it should try to use nested dictionaries like Py-ART to keep track of important metadata like units, full variable names, and other details. For example, instead of accessing the data like this:\r\n\r\n`fl['latitude']`\r\n\r\nYou should access it like this:\r\n\r\n`fl['latitude']['data']`\r\n\r\nThat way you could also get important info like `fl['latitude']['units']`, `fl['latitude']['full_name']`, etc.\r\n\r\nThe plotting routines could also take advantage of this when constructing default axis labels, titles, etc."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/nguy/AWOT/issues/comments/149614294","html_url":"https://github.com/nguy/AWOT/issues/16#issuecomment-149614294","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/nguy/AWOT/issues/16","id":149614294,"user":{"login":"nguy","id":1863738,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1863738?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/nguy","html_url":"https://github.com/nguy","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nguy/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nguy/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nguy/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nguy/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nguy/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nguy/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nguy/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nguy/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nguy/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-10-20T15:56:22Z","updated_at":"2015-10-20T15:56:22Z","body":"So just poking through the code and it appears I did retain metadata on the radar side, but not the flight data side for some odd reason.
