    63 To use this omission functionality one has to augment [wiki:OMI_observation_modules#init_dim_obs_OBSTYPE] in the observation modules as follows: [[BR]]

    76 Thus, the observation is prescribed to have a large error variance and hence has no effect in the assimilation. (The observation is not removed from the assimilation, but just made irrelevant). Depending on the observation, this default value might not be sufficient to make an observation irrelevant. If this is the case, one can also specify a different value of `thisobs%inno_omit_ivar` in the observation module.

    7880When `thisobs%inno_omit` is set to >0, you should see a screen output like
     
    111113In the domain-localized filters (LESTK, LETKF, LSEIK, LNETF) observations are assimilated that are located within the localization around some grid point. When a model uses parallelization with domain-decomposition some of these observations might belong to a different process-domain. In the default mode (`thisobs%use_global_obs`=1) PDAF-OMI gathers all globally available observations so that each process has access to all observations.

    113 It can be more efficient to limit the observations on a process-domain to those observations that are located inside the domain or within the localization radius around it. Then, in the local analyses less observations have to be checked for their distance. Setting `thisobs%use_global_obs=0` activates this feature. However, it needs additional preparations to make PDAF-OMI aware of the limiting coordinates of a process sub-domain.

Then, in the local analyses less observations have to be checked for their distance. Setting `thisobs%use_global_obs=0` (or `CALL PDAFomi_set_use_global_obs(thisobs,0)` from PDAF V2.3.1) activates this feature. However, it needs additional preparations to make PDAF-OMI aware of the limiting coordinates of a process sub-domain.

    115117In order to make use of the domain-limited observations, one has to provide PDAF-OMI with the limiting coordinates of a process-subdomain. There are two routines that can to this task:
