+ Suggestions for new UCD strings
From the discussion, and the proposals I made to some of the items, it follows we might need the following new UCDs:
-
meta.bib.doi
, for supporting DOI-based bibliographical references; not very needed, if the corresponding field only allows for bibcodes. This would be used for field bib_reference
.
-
pos.uv
, for specifying a UV-plane axis, and pos.uv.u
and pos.uv.v
for specifying a locus in the UV plane. This would be used for field s_ucd
, and in general for fields with UType Char.SpatialAxis.UCD. In particular:
-
pos.uv
should be a Secondary keyword, as pos.eq
et al.
-
pos.uv.u
and pos.uv.v
can be used as Primary or Secondary UCDs, as pos.eq.ra
et al.
-
arith.fft
, for qualifying a UCD as being subject to a FFT transform. This would be used for field em_axis
(for instance, em.freq; arith.fft
for an autocorrelation series), or for field s_ucd
, if instead of pos.uv
, pos.eq; arith.fft
were preferred. It should be used only as a Secondary UCD.
-
arith.log
, for qualifying a UCD as being subject to a logarithmic transform. This would be used for field em_axis
(for instance, em.wl; arith.log
; this use case comes from the SSA Recommendation). It should be used only as a Secondary UCD.
-
instr.footprint
, analogous to instr.fov
. It should be used only as a Secondary UCD. It is needed to support s_region
.
