Description:"It is increasingly typical for a large proportion of the data assimilated into numerical forecasting models to derive from various remote sensing instruments, such as radar, satellite passive and active sounders and, in the not too distant future, satellite or ground-based Doppler lidar. Although they are rich sources of data, a characteristic they share is the presence among the reports transmitted of a significant degree of information-redundancy, either by way having linearly dependent weighting functions in the case of passive satellite sounders, or simply by way of their spatial and temporal densities being far in excess of the required resolution of the assimilating system, which is typical (to an extreme degree) of radar data"--Introduction, paragraph 1.
