Line 39: ==HDF4== HDF4 is the older version of the format, although still actively supported by The HDF Group. It supports a proliferation of different data models, including multidimensional arrays, [[Raster graphics\|raster images]], and tables. Each defines a specific aggregate data type and provides an [[Application Programming Interface\|API]] for reading, writing, and organizing the data and metadata. New data models can be added by the HDF developers or users. HDF is self-describing, allowing an application to interpret the structure and contents of a file with no outside information. One HDF file can hold a mix of related objects which can be accessed as a group or as individual objects. Users can create their own grouping structures called "vgroups."
