This software provides utilities for visualizing and converting scientific data in the HDF5 format, which is portable and free of cost. It is a comprehensive suite of tools to work with HDF5 data.
One of the standout features of h5utils is its ability to convert 2D slices of HDF5 datasets into PNG images using a variety of color tables and customization options. Additionally, users can convert HDF5 datasets to other formats like plain text using utilities like h5totxt and h5fromtxt.
If you're working with simple mathematical expressions, h5math can help you create and combine HDF5 datasets with ease. And for those using GNU Octave, h5read.oct is a plug-in that allows you to read 2D slices of HDF5 datasets.
Finally, for users who also work with HDF version 4 data, h5utils includes utilities like h5fromh4 and h4fromh5 to help with conversion.
Overall, h5utils is an excellent package for anyone who wants to work more efficiently with HDF5 data. To get started, simply compile and install the package using the usual "./configure make make install" commands.
