Re: [ferret_users] Read HDF files



Hi Patrick,

The Linux file command on the downloaded dataset reports this file as HDF4 data. So it appears the issue is getting this into HDF5 format.

Hi all,

I would like to read HDF files.
From documentation, I read that
Beginning with Ferret v6.6, Ferret can read HDF-5 formatted files, and can write files with HDF compression and chunking.


I have tried from
a "MODIS/Aqua Calibrated Radiances 1km 5-Min 1B Narrow Swath Subset along CloudSat" ftp://atrain.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/data/s4pa//MAC/MAC021S0.002//2006/166/MAC021S0.A2006166.2355.002.2007103225542.hdf
