. Flex_extract is an open-source software package to efficiently retrieve and prepare meteorological data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) as input for the widely used Lagrangian particle dispersion model FLEXPART and the related trajectory model FLEXTRA.ECMWF provides a variety of data sets which differ in a number of parameters (available fields, spatial and temporal resolution, forecast start times, level types etc.). Therefore, the selection of the right data for a specific application and the settings needed to obtain them are not trivial. Consequently, the data sets which can be retrieved through flex_extract by both member-state users and public users as well as their properties are explained.Flex_extract 7.1.2 is a substantially revised version with completely restructured code, mainly written in Python 3, which is introduced with all its input and output files and an explanation of the four application modes. Software dependencies and the methods for calculating the native vertical velocity η ˙ , the handling of flux data and the preparation of the final FLEXPART input files are documented.Considerations for applications give guidance with respect to the selection of data sets, caveats related to the land–sea mask and orography, etc. Formal software quality-assurance methods have been applied to flex_extract. A set of unit and regression tests as well as code metric data are also supplied. A short description of the installation and usage of flex_extract is provided in the Appendix.The paper points also to an online documentation which will be kept up to date with respect to future versions.
