The timestamps are in dimension scales to the actual dataset. Dimension
scales seem to be relatively unsupported... not by HDFView anyway.
HDF Explorer supports dimension scales. To see an example, please go to
http://www.space-research.org/
go to menu "Online help" and search "HDF5 Dimension scales"
The example shows maps generated for a dataset that has 2 sets of dimension
scales attached. Choosing one set over the otther results in a different
map.

I do quite a bit of heterogeneous sensor data in time series. A common time
format would be nice. I ended up using Windows .NET DateTime.Ticks. Users
complained that it was unreadable (shocking) and I had to add a parallel
text string. Some of the sensors provide their own timestamp typically in
Unix Time (plus milliseconds).
The timestamps are in dimension scales to the actual dataset. Dimension
scales seem to be relatively unsupported... not by HDFView anyway. So they
end up as a secondary, independent dataset. It works in my code though.

Hi Tim,
I was curious about the topic too. From memory (earlier searches, a few
years ago), the was no standard for time series data.
By googling today, I find a few results
TsTables
http://andyfiedler.com/projects/tstables-store-high-frequency-data-with-pytables/
it is aimed at financial data series and is based on Pandas and PyTables.
So, it might no be very useful as a general purpose (i.e. usable by other
software than Python).
Modelica Association Time Series File Format
http://www.ep.liu.se/ecp/076/050/ecp12076050.pdf
Has been designed explicitly for generic time series data in the framework
of https://modelica.org/
NSDF
http://nsdf.readthedocs.org/en/latest/nsdf.html
Neuroscience Simulation Data Format, it seems a bit simpler in its
definition
http://www.frontiersin.org/10.3389/conf.fninf.2014.18.00026/event_abstract
It is just a bunch of links, but I hope that it helps.
Regards,
Pierre

Hello Everyone,
I had posted earlier ago requesting any information on HDF based projects
that were developed for Time-Series based storage of Physiological
waveforms such as ECG etc.
I would really appreciate your help in this matter.
Thanks
Tim
