About h5utils

From Debian's package description

HDF5 (Hierarchical Data Format 5) is a file format for storing scientific data. These tools allow converting other formats to HDF5 and to visualize HDF5 files. They include:

• h5topng, which extracts a 2d slice of an HDF5 file and outputs a corresponding image in PNG format;
• h5totxt, which extracts 2d slices and outputs comma-delimited text (suitable for import into a spreadsheet);
• h5fromtxt, which converts simple text input into multi-dimensional numeric HDF5 datasets;
• h5fromh4, which converts HDF4 data to HDF5;
• h5tovtk, which converts HDF5 files to VTK files for visualization with VTK-aware programs;
