ctrueden/ucar-units

The UCAR Units Java package, part of NetCDF Java, is for decoding and encoding formatted unit specifications (e.g. "m/s"), converting numeric values between compatible units (e.g. between "m/s" and "knot"), and for performing arithmetic operations on units (e.g. dividing one unit by another, raising a unit to a power).

I could not find the Java version of Unidata's UCAR Units available anywhere as a standalone project, so I created this one. I restructured things a little to use Maven as the build system.

Since this repository was created, the NetCDF team has split out the UCAR Units project into its own Maven artifact and published it to their Maven repository.

So this fork should no longer be necessary or useful to anyone!
