Hierarchal Data Format – Earth Observing Systems (HDF-EOS) is a standard file format designed to support and store data collected from Earth Observing System (EOS) satellites: Aqua, Aura and Terra.
The HDF-EOS Tools and Information Center website provides information about HDF-EOS and about the tools available to view and work with HDF-EOS and other NASA HDF files.
One of the many resources the website offers are code examples. Each code example provides knowledge on how to visualize data for NASA HDF/HDF-EOS files from programming languages such as Python, NCL, MATLAB and IDL.
List of DAAC’s and the projects that include code examples:
ASDC
- CALIPSO
- CATS
- CERES
- DSCOVR
- MISR
- MOPITT
- TES
GES DISC
LAADS
LP DAAC
NSIDC
OBDAAC
- Aqua-MODIS
- CZCS
- OCTS
- S-NPP VIIRS
- SeaWiFS
- Terra-MODIS
Note: For NCL users NCAR NCL can not access data using its netCDF-API. A solution is to use the HDF5 API that NCL provides
because the product is netCDF-4 which uses HDF5 underneath.

Please check back often as the HDF-EOS Tool and Information Center are constantly updating code examples.
The HDF/HDF-EOS Workshop XXV will be held on Friday, July 22, 2022. For details, please visit
