== Common Data Form Language (CDL) == |
|||
SOFA conventions can be implemented without any programming by using CDL as suggested for netCDF. CDL files allow for a platform-independent interpretation of specifications and can be compiled to a binary netCDF file using the ncgen tool from the netCDF package: |
|||
ncgen -b -o mySOFAfile.sofa -k3 mySOFAconvention.cdl |
|||
The binaries of the nc-tools are available at the Unidata. |

SOFA files can be loaded and edited in the HDFView - a viewer for HDF5 files. Note that SOFA files are based on netCDF-4, which is based on HDF5. |
SOFA files can be loaded and edited in the [http://www.hdfgroup.org/hdf-java-html/hdfview/ HDFView] - a viewer for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hdf5 HDF5] files. Note that SOFA files are based on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NetCDF netCDF-4], which is based on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hdf5 HDF5]. |
