Coordinates are specified using an "axis" and are encoded in a similar way to the [http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/ncml/v2.2/AnnotatedSchema.html NcML] "values" element -- either every coordinate can be listed, or a start value and offset given for periodic coordinates. "point_indices" and "edge_indices" are used in a similar way to indicate which coordinates refer to cell edges, and which to grid points.	+	A vertical coordinate system provides a description of the vertical coordinates used by a grid [[GENIE_Gridspec_Diagrams_Tile\|tile]], and may include the coordinates themselves.
