- NetCDF3 / NetCDF4
- GRIB1 / GRIB2
- HDF4
- HDF-EOS2
- HDF-EOS5
- Shapefile
PyNIO has a data model interface that is modeled on the NetCDF data model.
PyNIO is developed by the Computational and Information Systems Lab at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, and is funded by the National Science Foundation.
