## The obs4MIPs data specifications

The obs4MIPs data specifications (ODS) provide the detailed technical alignment between CMIP standard model output and obs4MIPs-compliant products. [ODS2.1](docs/ODSv2p1.pdf) has been used to prepare obs4MIPs-compliant datasets during much of the evaluation stage of CMIP6.
The obs4MIPs data specifications (ODS) provide the detailed technical alignment between CMIP standard model output and obs4MIPs-compliant products. The most recent version, [ODS2.5](../docs/Obs4MIPsDataSpecifications2.5_Finalized.pdf), was finalized 15 April 2024. Refinements to ODS can be expected to ensure alignment with CMIP7.

Currently, an updated version of ODS is being developed to improve the transparency of dataset preparation. Comments are welcome (obs4MIPs-admin@llnl.gov) on [this draft](docs/Obs4MIPsDataSpecifications2.5_NEARFINAL-noedits.pdf), which is expected to be finalized in early 2024.
