Exploiting HDF5 Technologies to Represent Geo-Information Peter Cao, Jacob Grubar, Mike Folk The HDF Group An Example with Complex Terrain Data HDF and HDF-EOS Workshop XIV
Acknowledgment This work was funded by US Army Corps of Engineers, Engineering Research and Development Center (ERDC), BAA Contract No. W9132V-08-C-0028 Special thanks to John Nedza of ERDC-TEC, whose ideas are the basis for this work. HDF and HDF-EOS Workshop XIV
Goals of This Study • Explore a unified data model for information retrieval, visualization, and analysis • Identify the role that HDF5 can play as a data management platform for Battlefield operations • Demonstrate the use of web-based tools in combination with HDF5 to organize and work with a wide range of operational data HDF and HDF-EOS Workshop XIV
