Scientific paper

The Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope (BLAST) is a scanning experiment observing simultaneously with 270 detectors in three submillimetric bands centered at 250um, 350um and 500um. We describe data reduction techniques required to generate maps from data acquired during the BLAST flight in June 2005. This includes generation of a high-precision pointing solution, calibration of the bolometric detectors, optimal map making in the presence of strong correlations in the timestreams, and deconvolution of the irregularly shaped BLAST05 beams. Final maps resulting from this pipeline will be shown.
