The techniques that are used to infer atmospheric conditions on the model grid generally depend (at least at some point) upon a process called objective analysis. Objective analysis serves two functions: 1) it provides estimates of fields at locations and times other than those of the observations and 2) it filters the input [i.e., it removes a portion of the input (hopefully noise) and retains other portions of the input (hopefully signal)]. 3, record 6, English, - objective%20analysis
