= PDAFomi_set_use_global_obs =

This page documents the routine `PDAFomi_set_use_global_obs` of PDAF. The routine was introduced by PDAF version 2.3.1.

The routine sets thisobs%use_global_obs. It avoids to directly initialize elements of the data type 'thisobs' in the code, which can be problematic in some programming languages.

For details on 'thisobs%use_global_obs' see the [wiki:OMI_use_global_obs documentation on using domain-limited observations].


The interface is:
{{{
  SUBROUTINE PDAFomi_set_use_global_obs(use_global_obs)

    INTEGER, INTENT(in) :: use_global_obs           ! (1) to use global full observations; (0) to use domain-limited full observations
}}}

'''Note: '''
 * When using Fortran, one can also initialize thisobs%use_global_obs directly
