Granule Data Format > HDF-EOS2

PREFERRED TERM

HDF-EOS2  

DEFINITION

  • The HDF-EOS2 is a software library designed built on HDF4* to support EOS-specific data structures, namely Grid, Point, and Swath. The new data structures are constructed from standard HDF data objects, using EOS conventions, through the use of a software library. A key feature of HDF-EOS files is that instrument-independent services, such as subsetting by geolocation, can be applied to the files across a wide variety of data products.
