    • Josh: talking to the vendors. NetCDF as an insulation layer.
    • Ward: https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/software.html

• Josh: (idea) NetCDF as translation layer between BDV-HDF5 and BDV-N5

  • Ward: ok, but limitations when writing HDF5 via NetCDF (e.g.

    nested groups)

  • Ward: generally, excited about separating common model from

    storage

  • Josh: similar to our metadata model process at the moment.

  • Supporting all written files …

  • Pure Java HDF5 library?

  • nccopy from HDF5 to zarr/n5!
