[@WetterZuoNouiduiPang.2014].
Other libraries, such as the open-source library AixLib [@Maier.2023], import this model
to handle weather data.
Often, users of these libraries, which do not have a TMY3 file at hand, get stuck or invest a lot of
time to convert their weather data to the required format.
Solving this problem was the initial motivation behind developing AixWeather.
Furthermore, only limited tools exist for importing and converting real, historical, or forecast
weather data to building energy simulation formats.
The same holds for Test Reference Years (TRY) from the German Weather Service (DWD).

The same is true for the Test Reference Years (TRY) of the German Weather Service (DWD).
AixWeather also addresses these needs, making it a valuable tool, not only for researchers who work with the ReaderTMY3 format.

# Structure of AixWeather

\autoref{fig:AixWeatherStructure} shows the current data flow and structure of AixWeather.
First, the data is imported as raw as possible.
The imported data is transformed into a core format and, from there, into the desired export format.

First, the data is imported as raw as possible, to enable inspection of the raw data.
The imported data is then converted into a core format, including all transformations like data
enrichment, unit conversions, time zone and measurement time handling.
The core format is a defined format that allows for generalized conversion to the different export
formats.
The pass-through handling avoids avoidable interpolation-related smoothing by storing the original
unsmoothed time series and, if the shift sequence allows, overwriting the smoothed time series
