    32NetCDF (Network Common Data Form) is a machine-independent format for representing scientific data, suitable for large arrays (http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/). It has been initially developed for meteorological data, but has been progressively chosen by many scientific communities. Each piece of data can be directly accessed by its tag name without reading the whole file. New records can be added to the file without perturbing the remaining information. It is now a sub-set of the more recent HDF format.
