 **The Kvalobs Open Source Software (kvoss) Mission Statement**
-Kvoss shall be the main real-time Quality Control system for meteorological data (KVALOBS), providing tools  for manual interaction on data quality by a Human Quality Control system (HQC). Advanced automatic QC-methods in non-real-time (QC2) shall provide spatial, climatological and statistical checks to increase the confidence of data quality after real time checks (QC1).

-Kvoss shall be well suited for QC on observed and measured time series in meteorology, both in real- and non-real-time, anywhere in the world. As a real-time system KVALOBS shall handle huge amounts of data within 3 minutes to fit input requirements for weather forecast production.

 **Standard for quality information**
-The resulting quality flags use the Nordic National Weather Service standard for quality information, designed for transformation to the WMO BUFR-format for data exchange.

 **License, origin of software and implementations**
-The software is free and licensed as GPL. Kvoss rises from the cooperation on QC-tools between Norwegian Meteorological Institute (met.no) and Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute (SMHI) and is linked to the NORDKLIM program for the Nordic countries [[http://www.smhi.se/hfa_coord/nordklim/]]. The system is used in operational production at met.no, and will be run at SMHI in 2008.
