HST Data Analysis
In support of HST data calibration, reduction and analysis a number of
supporting documents, software tools and auxiliary information bases are
maintained at STScI and elsewhere.
Instrument Handbooks
|
General information about HST instruments. Instrument
information can also be found on the ACS,
STIS, NICMOS,
WFPC2,
FGS, and other
instrument web pages.

In depth discussion related to the display,
calibration, reduction, and recommended user analysis procedures
for each of the archival and currently active HST instruments.
|
STSDAS
|
The Space Telescope Data Analysis System
(STSDAS) is provided to users wishing to apply modified calibrations to HST
data.
|
Calibration Workshops
|
Several months after installation of new
instruments STScI hosts calibration workshops and publishes the proceedings
which contain a wide range of papers of interest to data reduction and analysis.
Proceedings are available from 1993,
1995, 1997 (STIS),
2002 and
2005.

Pointing and Jitter
|
Auxiliary support information on HST pointing,
jitter and focus.
