Title HDFVset
Revision 2.1
Purpose HDF for irregularly structured and non-uniform datasets
Package type subroutine library
Application area visualization
Abstract NCSA HDF Vset is the latest storage scheme in HDF. It can accommodate existing HDF data elements as well as varied, irregularly structured and non-uniform datasets of any size and dimension. Specifically, HDF Vset makes the following two features available to you: (1) All kinds of regular (array-type) and irregular datasets may now be stored in one HDF file. This includes mesh data, multi-variate datasets, sparse matrices, finite-element data, spreadsheets, splines, non-Cartesian coordinate data, etc., and (2) Related and diverse datasets can now be linked together hierarchically to form logical groupings. Full or partial access to data, along with the linking of storage elements, make logical groupings in an HDF file easy to use and retrieve.
