Scientific paper

We examine the feasibility and utility of performing bias drift corrections to NICMOS data in a pipeline environment, with a specific eye towards the use of these routines in an “On The Fly Reprocessing” (OTFR) system. We have investigated the feasibility of the required calibration software implementation, as well as the scientific quality of the data that would be produced by such a system. Our results indicate that the implementation would be quite straight-forward, and that the calibrated data products would offer a vast improvement over the currently-available products and would be immediately usable for scientific analysis with little or no further post-pipeline processing.
