MERGEohjelma

MERGEohjelma is a software application developed by the Finnish Meteorological Institute (FMI) for the purpose of merging and processing meteorological observations. The program is designed to handle a wide range of data types, including surface observations, upper-air soundings, and satellite data, among others. MERGEohjelma is used to create a comprehensive and consistent dataset that can be used for various meteorological applications, such as weather forecasting, climate research, and environmental monitoring.

The software is capable of performing quality control checks on the input data to ensure that only reliable and accurate observations are included in the final dataset. It also includes features for interpolating missing data and adjusting for biases in the observations. MERGEohjelma is designed to be flexible and modular, allowing users to customize the software to meet their specific needs.

The program is written in the Fortran programming language and is available for use on various operating systems, including Linux and Windows. It is distributed under an open-source license, allowing users to modify and distribute the software as needed. MERGEohjelma is an essential tool for meteorological research and forecasting, and its development and maintenance are supported by the Finnish Meteorological Institute.
