The HDF Server allows producers of complex datasets to share their results with a wide audience base. We used it to develop the Global Fire Emissions Database (GFED) Analysis Tool, a website which guides the user through our dataset. A simple webmap interface allows users to select an area of interest and produce data visualization charts.

That was then. Today, it is an expression of hope for the spreadsheet users who run this country and
When storing data, the rich, portable metadata capabilities, including directed graph structures (e.g., hierarchies), complex attributes, and inter-object references make HDF5 a superior choice for maintaining the bond between data and metadata at the lowest level. Community involvement is an essential part of the HDF Group’s mission: It is vital to sustaining the business and is our brain trust when making decisions about changes to HDF5, setting priorities, and adding new features.
