We present a family of simplified flux-transport type dynamo models that can be used for testing various data assimilation schemes. This family of models contain one, two or three layers in the vertical, and are in cartesian geometry. More layers allow more detailed representation of important dynamo processes, including transport by meridional flow, production of poloidal fields by the alpha-effect, and magnetic diffusivity that varies with depth. The models are capable of simulating resonance effects, which make them sensitive to variations in inputs by assimilation of data. The one-layer version of this family is closely related to that used by Kitiashvili & Kosovichev (2008) (ApJ 688,L49) to test Kalman filter methods on solar dynamo equations.
