Look into Station Grouping for NDBC Stations

[jamesdoyle21]

We had a discussion with the team last meeting about applying the same station grouping idea we did for the CO-OPS stations to any of the other station layers (by changing the pin dot color). The only other one that makes sense to apply grouping to is NDBC. The categories for the grouping will not be the same as CO-OPS, however, because the data is different. This will require some digging and working with @cpaternostro to determine how to best categorize these.

@jamesdoyle21 I gave this a shot with three categories. There are only 25 unique tag combos this time, so it was easier to do.

How does this look?

That looks great. However, I don't know what Ocean means. Is that a grouping of currents, water level and other parameters?

Here is an example of an "Ocean" station Chris. Is there a better term we can use here?

[kvmartin001]

@cpaternostro The Ocean stations are a grouping of currents, water levels, salinity, water temperature, and/or water quality. Anything having to do with water was classified as "Ocean".
Any variable having to do with air was classified as "Meteorology", and if a station had both, it was classified as "MetOcean".

I suppose the term "Ocean" doesn't really apply to the Great Lakes though.
