emdfile

EMD (Electron Microscopy Dataset) 1.0 is an HDF5 based file format which is designed to carry arbitrary data and metadata. An overview of the file specification can be found here.

emdfile is a Python package defining write and read functions and a set of classes which together interface between EMD 1.0 files and Python runtime objects. The classes are designed to quickly build, save to, and read from filetree-like representations of data and metadata.
