[Qgis-user] mdal / mesh simple formats

[Matt Boyd]

Thanks, thats pretty helpful.
I'm running QGIS 3.26.2-Buenos Aires installed from osgeo.
under the xdmf directory there the xmf/hdf files look pretty similar
to what I'm using but they won't load. there's a partial duplicate of
the data in the hdf file in that directory as a 2dm file which does
work.
I'm still not sure if I'm supposed to be able to load the xmf/hdf
files directly using mdal? I can easily drop out my hdf5 data to the
2dm format is this the proposed way to do it?

Thanks again
Matt
