Hypercube

While RSF stores binary data in a contiguous 1-D array, the conceptual data model is a multidimensional hypercube. By convention, the dimensions of the cube are defined with parameters n1, n2, n3, etc. The fastest axis is n1. Additionally, the grid sampling can be given by parameters d1, d2, d3, etc. The axes origins are given by parameters o1, o2, o3, etc. Optionally, you can also supply the axis label strings label1, label2, label3, etc., and axis units strings unit1, unit2, unit3, etc.
