摘要

This report describes the HDFg library. HDFg comprises a set of high-level HDF I/O functions, built on top the official NCSA HDF library (version 4.1). They were developed to simplify I/O from and to HDF scientific data sets (i.e. multi-dimensional arrays) and their attributes. Furthermore as set of utilities were developed to convert the data from asimof, ASCII or plain binary format to HDF. This report gives a full description of the HDF attributes used to interpret the GRIB header information. These conventions are used by the asim2hdf utility. The HDFg library was developed as part of the WEPTEL project.
