Zusammenfassung	Sensor fusion is a computational process that combines data from multiple heterogeneous sensors to produce an estimate of the environment that is more accurate, complete, and reliable than any single source alone. Systematized as a formal field by Khaleghi, Khamis, Karray, and Razavi in their 2013 state-of-the-art review in Information Fusion, the discipline addresses imperfections such as noise, incompleteness, temporal misalignment, and conflicting readings that arise whenever multiple sensing modalities operate in parallel.	The Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF) is a sequential Monte Carlo data assimilation algorithm introduced by Geir Evensen in 1994. It extends the classical Kalman filter to high-dimensional, nonlinear dynamical systems by representing the forecast error covariance through a finite ensemble of model realizations rather than propagating a full covariance matrix. Each ensemble member evolves through the nonlinear model, and observations are assimilated by computing a sample-based Kalman gain, making the method computationally tractable for large geophysical models.
