The Private HDF5 group and all of its subgroups are optional and considered proprietary and software-specific data. This section can be structured per the acquisition or post-processing software’s specifications.

Each application that creates, reads, or modifies the file can add specific information here. This container can be used as deemed necessary by the application software that creates the .nde file, including but not limited to storing setup information, customized data, or metadata, etc.

Not everything under this group is covered by the present documentation and it should not be used for information that should be shared between different applications.
