NetCDF-4 is a NASA-funded effort to improve:
NetCDF-4 combines the netCDF-3 and HDF5 data models, taking the desirable characteristics of each, while taking advantage of their separate strengths:
The goal of netCDF-4 is to make netCDF more suitable for high-performance computing and large datasets, and to provide a simple high-level application programming interface (API) for HDF5.
