I provide a frequency domain reduced order model (ROM) for the aligned-spineffective-one-body (EOB) model "SEOBNRv2" for data analysis with second andthird generation ground based gravitational wave (GW) detectors. SEOBNRv2models the dominant mode of the GWs emitted by the coalescence of black hole(BH) binaries. The large physical parameter space (dimensionless spins $-1 \leq\chi_i \leq 0.99$ and symmetric mass-ratios $0.01 \leq \eta \leq 0.25$)requires sophisticated reduced order modeling techniques, including patching inthe parameter space and in frequency. I find that the time window over whichthe inspiral-plunge and the merger-ringdown waveform in SEOBNRv2 are connectedis discontinuous when the spin of the deformed Kerr BH $\chi=0.8$ or thesymmetric mass-ratio $\eta \sim 0.083$. This discontinuity increases resolutionrequirements for the ROM. The ROM can be used for compact binary systems withtotal masses of $2 M_\odot$ or higher for the advanced LIGO (aLIGO) designsensitivity and a $10$ Hz lower cutoff frequency. The ROM has a worst mismatchagainst SEOBNRv2 of $\sim 1\%$, but in general mismatches are better than $\sim0.1\%$. The ROM is crucial for key data analysis applications for compactbinaries, such as GW searches and parameter estimation carried out within theLIGO Scientific Collaboration (LSC).
