I downloaded surface moisture
data from Nasa
's Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP)
sensor website (https://nsidc.org/data/smap/smap-data.html).
For each processing level (1-4), three types of files are present inside each folder: a *.qa
file, an *.xml
file, and a *.h5
file.
I tried to open the h5
file with ENVI
but the format could not be recognized on the Dataset Browser
.
Gdal
also could not read it as:
dataset = gdal.Open('SMAP_L1C_S0_HIRES_02045_D_20150620T094355_R11850_001.h5')
print dataset.RasterCount
returned 0 which means that the bands could not be read.
Dataset Browser
I gotThis dataset is not supported by ENVI
for every raster. Besides, my question was not on how to open anhdf
file withENVI
, but how to openSMAP
surface moisture files. There was not need to downvote my question since you're not even answering it... – Hakim Nov 29 '15 at 1:15
