The analysis is obtained by the minimization of the cost function J(x)
B is the background error covariance matrix
R is the observation error covariance matrix
= ½ (x – xb) T B-1 (x – xb) + ½(y – H(x))T R-1 (y – H(x))
J(x) = J b(x) + J o(x)

Interpolation to final ELDAS gridInterpolation to final ELDAS grid
the nearest point has been used for MF/INM interpolation and it is planned to be used also for the final production since it avoids post processing and save self consistency of surface fields.
