What is a H5 file?
H5 files are commonly related to HDF (Hierarchical Data Format). It saves extensive scientific data in a multidimensional order. For years it has been used by NASA for earth tracking missions. Still, you can use it in physics, finance, aerospace, academic research, medical works and astronomy, and other industries that deal with weighty data. The HDF file is available in HDF4 and HDF5 versions, with HDF5 being the latest version. Compared to HDF4, HDF5 is an improved version that is able to address some of the limitations there before. For instance, it offers more data space. Also, it uses a maximum of only two structures, i.e., grouping and multidimensional. HDF5 files compress vast amounts of data, but the overall size could seem small. In fact, your computer’s RAM does not have to read everything inside, which allows users to deal with large chunks of data. You can slice some of the data separately and extract it for use.
