Abstract: An application program interface (API) has been developed for the creation and access of structured data files generated by microphone phased arrays utilized in aeroacoustics research. Two structured binary file formats are supported, namely NetCDF (Network Common Data Form) and HDF5 (Hierarchical Data Format) files. The API consists of a library of routines callable from C, Fortran or Matlab, with native versions of the API provided for each language. The libraries are divided into categorie...
