[MS4W-Users] Is MapServer suppose to be able to serve hdf5 images?

[TC Haddad]

Hi Andrew,

If you look at the gdal raster formats list:
https://gdal.org/drivers/raster/index.html, you will see that gdal supports
georeferencing of HDF5 format, but not creation of HDF5.

So the message that you got from Mapserver is correct - gdal cannot support
HDF5 output. The answer would be the same regardless of the version of
Mapserver...
