    2323OMI is designed to reduce the coding effort for implementing the support for an observation type, its corresponding observation operator, and localization. In particular, only the three routines
    24  - init_dim_obs_f
    25  - obs_op_f
     24 - init_dim_obs
     25 - obs_op
    2626 - init_dim_obs_l (for domain-localized filters like LETKF and LESTKF)
    2727need to be implemented for an observation type. All other routines base on variables that are initialized by these routines and are provided by PDAF-OMI.
     
    53531. `init_dim_obs_l` calls a PDAF-OMI routine to initialize the observation information corresponding to a local analysis domain. Here for can set a different localization radius for each observation type.

    55 For each observation type, PDAF-OMI uses a data structure that was initialized in the obs-module. The set of routines in `callback_obs_pdafomi.F90` provide the observation handling for all filters and smoothers provided by PDAF. Thus once, `init_dim_obs_f` and `obs_op_f` are implemented for a particular observation and the subroutine calls in `callback_obs_pdafomi.F90` for this observation type are inserted, one can use each of the provided assimilation methods. (An exception is the local EnKF, which needs one additional routine to localize the covariance matrix. The actual operation is, however, also performed by a routine provided by PDAF-OMI).
