Summary     : A general purpose library and file format for storing scientific data
Description :
HDF5 is a general purpose library and file format for storing scientific data.
HDF5 can store two primary objects: datasets and groups. A dataset is
essentially a multidimensional array of data elements, and a group is a
structure for organizing objects in an HDF5 file. Using these two basic
objects, one can create and store almost any kind of scientific data
structure, such as images, arrays of vectors, and structured and unstructured
grids. You can also mix and match them in HDF5 files according to your needs.

Update Information:

Update to 1.6.7    The stream I/O driver, H5FD_STREAM, has been removd from and
is no longer distributed with the HDF5 Library. The following APIs have
therefore been removed from this release.  H5Pset_fapl_stream
H5Pget_fapl_stream  The stream driver ENUM value H5FD_STREAM has also been
removed.    While the stream driver is no longer distributed by The HDF Group,
it will be made available as a source code distribution from
http://hdf5-addons.origo.ethz.ch/. An integration mechanism will be developed
and instructions for using the driver with HDF5 will be posted on that site.
