It often happens that you only need to preview the contents of the HDF5 file, without the need to edit or process the data contained in it. In this case, it is enough that you use the so-called HDF5 Viewer. This type of tool is nothing more than a program or an online application that allows you to easily view the content of the data stored in the HDF5 file. To view the content of the HDF5 file you can use several options:
Our HDF5 Viewer did not live up to what I expected? Choose something else For starters, we suggest installing software that supports HDF5 files Here are some sample programs that can help you. If you choose to install software that supports HDF5, you will have additional oppositions, such as converting the HDF5 file or editing the HDF5 file.
First of all, you need to know that you need to install specific software that supports HDF5 files on your computer. Unfortunately, it is not possible to see the HDF5 file online in this case. Here you will need more time to use this solution, but you will also have more options. You can find some examples of dedicated software below, and the full list is here HDF5 File Opener
If you still cannot see the contents of the HDF5 file, but also don't see the need to install dedicated software, then there are other solutions. A lot of file formats contain plain text data or packed data. In this case, you can try to open your HDF5 file with the simplest text editor, for example with "Notepad". This solution does not guarantee that the problem will be solved, but it will often allow you to view the data in the HDF5 file to some extent.
The second attempt may be with a data archiving program. Check if you can open your file with eg Winrar. If the file is a data archive, you should see what individual files it consists of. To get information about what kind of data it is, go to the subpage with information about the HDF5 file extension.
