Overview

Imports time series data stored in the HDF4 file format.

Notice that the file name should contain the date and time for the data in the following format:

 *_yyyymmddHHMM_*.*    

that is:

• The file name without the extension should contain the date and time between two underscores, for instance AMSR_E_L2A_BrightnessTemperatures_P07_200604152307_D.hdf
• The date and time are given as four digits for the year, two digits for respectively month, day, hour and minute (seconds are ignored; the format may not currently contain a "T" to separate date and time or a "Z" to indicate the timezone).

All parameters in the file are assumed to be defined on one and the same grid, defined in the configuration.
