Thanks, Felix. You are watching new questions here. I will give a try to rgdal and let you know the result. BTW, it is surprising to me that there seems no R package handling HDF5 like PyTables does for Python community, considering HDF5 is as popular as NetCDF as a file format for scientific data. I hope the gap will be filled in near future.
