Description
A very common need when presented with an HDF5 file (especially for non-programmers or those new to HDF5), is some way to “see” the contents. Happily, there are a variety of viewers for HDF5 data sources available: HDFView, H5Web (myhdf5), HDF Compass, etc. However, it’s not obvious how these compare or when one or another might be preferable for a particular application. In this session, we’ll have a short review of HDFView, H5Web, and HDF Compass, covering their history, features, intended use, and future roadmap. We will conclude with an open discussion of what future steps would best serve the needs of the HDF5 community.
