v12 v13 6 6 }}} 7 7 8 The Parallel Data Assimilation Framework - PDAF - is a software framework that simplifies the implementation of data assimilation systems using existing numerical models. Reducing the work required for the implementation will enable users to obtain a data assimilation system with less work such that they can focus on applying data assimilation, rather than implementing it. The defined interface of PDAF allows to continue the development of the assimilation methods and the model independently. New developments on the algorithmic side can be readily made available through the interface such that can be tested immediately with existing implementations.8 The Parallel Data Assimilation Framework - PDAF - is a software framework that simplifies the implementation of data assimilation systems using existing numerical models.

However, also smaller models and even toy models can be used. PDAF simplifies the implementation of data assimilation systems using existing model code by the following:
