Description:

"In this paper we will describe the procedures for collecting, preprocessing, and quality controlling the data used for meteorological analyses at the National Meteorological Center (NMC). The discussion is focused on NMC's global optimum interpolation (GOI) analysis system which is used for both operational medium-range forecasting and data assimilation. We will not discuss the data aspects of our Limited-area Fine-Mesh system or the previously operational HOUGH system, which is still used but only as a backup procedure"--Introduction, paragraph 1.
