Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.
I'm considering HDF and netCDF for storing data captured from an Electronic Warfare simulation running on Sun/Solaris. The files will be used to analyze various aspects of the performance of the simulator in R and possibly MatLab. I would like to be able to transfer the files to other platforms, such as WinNT, for processing by other data analysis software. Please, I don't want to start a flame war, but I would like some honest opinions about advantages and disadvantages of using netCDF vs HDF. If you send your comments directly to me, I will be happy to summarize to the list. -- Terry J. Westley, Software Systems Engineering Supervisor Veridian Engineering, Calspan Operations P.O.
