Description :
HDF is a multi-object file format that facilitates the transfer of
various types of scientific data between machines and operating
systems. Machines currently supported include the Cray, HP, Vax, Sun,
IBM RS/6000, Silicon Graphics, Macintosh, and IBM PC computers. HDF
allows self-definitions of data content and easy extensibility for
future enhancements or compatibility with other standard formats. HDF
includes Fortran and C calling interfaces,and utilities to prepare raw
image of data files or for use with other NCSA software. The HDF
library contains interfaces for storing and retrieving compressed or
uncompressed 8-bit and 24-bit raster images with palettes,
n-Dimensional scientific datasets and binary tables. An interface is
also included that allows arbitray grouping of other HDF objects.
