There is a Scientific Data Format Information FAQ available in several
forms.  If you have Mosaic or some other World Wide Web client, you can view
the hypertext form of the document by opening the following URL:

    http://fits.cv.nrao.edu/traffic/scidataformats/faq.html

You can get a copy via anonymous FTP from:

        host:   rtfm.mit.edu
        file:   pub/usenet/news.answers/sci-data-formats

If you can't use FTP, send email to address@hidden with 

        send /pub/usenet/news.answers/sci-data-formats

as the only text in the message (leave the subject blank). 

The document covers CDF, FITS, GRIB, HDF, netCDF, and miscellaneous graphics
formats.
