Introduction to the HDF5 Lite and High Level Interfaces

The HDF5 High Level APIs consist of a set of functions built on top of the basic HDF5 library. The purpose is either to define functions which do more operations per call than the basic HDF5 interface or to build a set of functions for added standard object definitions (like images or tables). Topics to be presented include:

• HDF5 Lite: Higher level functions
• HDF5 Image. HDF5 data sets that are intended to be interpreted as images.
• HDF5 Table. HDF5 data sets that are intended to be interpreted as tables.
