The hdfeos52netcdf is a tool that converts an HDF-EOS5 file to an netCDF file. This program is very similar to hdfeos2netcdf except that this program reads only HDF-EOS5 files.
This program has similar limitation as hdfeos2netcdf has. This program can convert only grid and swath data; point data cannot be converted. Also, the format of netCDF files this program creates is netCDF-3, not the latest netCDF-4.
