NetCDF_ProjectionTestingStatus

@@ -3 +3 @@
 The list of supported CF-1.5 projections is shown at http://cf-pcmdi.llnl.gov/documents/cf-conventions/1.5/apf.html .
 
+The table below shows tested ability to export projections from a GDAL raster - originally in GeoTIFF - to NetCDF CF-1.5 in each supported projection.
+
 Hopefully the shorthand projection names listed below are fairly self-explanatory - they've been listed in the same order as that shown on the CF-1.5 appendix page.
+
+'''Note''': the current import capability has been tested to be the inverse of the export capability. If and when we are able to test capability to import NetCDF variants that don't have a direct CF-1 equivalent, we should add a supplementary table.
