Project description

The pyhdf package wraps the functionality of the NCSA HDF4 library inside a Python OOP framework. The SD (scientific dataset), VS (Vdata) and V (Vgroup) APIs are currently implemented. Other APIs should be covered in the near future. SD datasets are read/written through Numeric arrays. netCDF files can also be read and modified with pyhdf. Main changes from 0.7-2 version are: added support for HDF4.2r1 and the SZIP compression method. See the download page for previous releases and change history.
