     3This page documents the routine `PDAF_put_state_generate_obs` of PDAF.
     4
     5The routine is typically called in `assimilate_pdaf` or directly in the model code.
     6
     7This routine is used to generate synthetic observations with PDAF. The routines `PDAF_put_state_*` are used with the 'flexible' implementation variant of PDAF.
     8The general aspects of the filter specific routines `PDAF_put_state_*` are described on the page [ModifyModelforEnsembleIntegration Modification of the model code for the ensemble integration] and its sub-page on [InsertAnalysisStep inserting the analysis step]. For the 'fully parallel' implementation variant the alternative routine `PDAF_generate_obs` is used.
     9
     10The interface is the following:
     11{{{
     12  SUBROUTINE PDAF_put_state_generate_obs(U_collect_state, U_init_dim_obs_f, U_obs_op_f, U_get_obs_f, &
     13                                  U_init_obserr_f, U_prepoststep, status_pdaf)
     14}}}
     15with the following arguments:
     16 * `U_collect_state`: The name of the user-supplied routine that initializes a state vector from the array holding the ensemble of model states from the model fields. This is basically the inverse operation to `U_distribute_state` used in [ModifyModelforEnsembleIntegration#PDAF_get_state PDAF_get_state].
     17 * `U_init_dim_obs_f`: The name of the user-supplied routine that provides the size of the full observation vector
     18 * `U_obs_op_f`: The name of the user-supplied routine that acts as the full observation operator on some state vector
     19 * `U_get_obs_f`: The name of the user-supplied routine that receives the full vector of generated synthetic observations from PDAF
     20 * `U_init_obserr_f`: The name of the user-supplied routine that initializes the vector of observations error standard deviations for for full observation vector
     21 * `U_prepoststep`: The name of the pre/poststep routine as in `PDAF_get_state`
     22 * `status_pdaf`: The integer status flag. It is zero, if `PDAF_put_state_letkf` is exited without errors.
     23
     24
     25The user-supplied call-back routines are described on the [ImplementGenenerateObs page on implementing the generation of synthetic observations].
     26
     27It is recommended that the value of `status_pdaf` is checked in the program after PDAF_generate_obs is executed. Only if its value is 0 the initialization was successful.
     28
     29PDAF also has a [PdafSimplifiedInterface Simplified Interface] providing the routine `PDAF_put_state_generate_obs_si`. In the simplified interface, the name of the user-supplied routines have predefined names and do not appear in the call to `PDAF_put_state_generate_obs_si`.  More information on the pre-defined names is provided in the [ImplementGenenerateObs page on implementing the generation of synthetic observations].
