try terra::rast() or stars::read_stars() on the file, both use gdal to interrogate and read. What you get depends on the structure of the files, variables interpreted as subdatasets. stars is more general but sees variables as 2D arrays with bands, terra calls these bands layers.
Alternatively try raster::raster() or RNetCDF or tidync which might be more straightforward than rhdf5 but all are quite different to each other and to the gdal view. hth On Sat, 13 Nov 2021, 18:56 Gabriel Cotlier, <gabikl...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello, > > I would like to be able to visualize / plot a specific data layer within > the structure a hierarchical data file format .h5 in R.
