The development is done in the frameworks of the Destination Earth initiative. # Description The OBS application is currently being developed as a set of scripts (written in bash, fortran, python): -(1) for pre-processing gsv_extracted modeled data (over latitude-longitude domain) for selected meteorological variables into hourly time-slices (00...23 UTCs); -(2) for extracting (using sql with odp_api software) selected meteorological variables at hourly time-slices for observations from: (i) ground-based synoptical stations at fixed at the surface geographical locations/points (i.e., 2D: latitude, longitude); (ii) vertical radiosounding of the atmosphere at changing locations/points (3D: latitude, longitude, single pressure level), and (iii) satellite at changing locations/ points (3D: latitude, longitude, multiple pressure levels); -(3) for extracting and interpolating (using cdo software - for synop; & expecting/using polytope - for radiosounding and satellite) modeled data for the same time-slices for same selected meteorological variables into corresponding locations/points of (synop, radiosounding, satellite) observations, and adding (using sql) such data to ODB; -(4) for calculating/ producing relevant statistics such as quantile rank histogram statistics and plots (t-test and others to be added) +1.

The team includes also Jouni Räisänen (jouni.raisanen@helsinki.fi), Lauri Tuppi (lauri.tuppi@helsinki.fi), Madeleine Ekblom (madeleine.ekblom@helsinki.fi), and Alexander Mahura (alexander.mahura@helsinki.fi). Some features are still not implemented and you may expect bugs. For feedback and issue reporting, feel free to open an issue in: https://earth.bsc.es/gitlab/digital-twins/de_340/obs/-/issues
