Scientific paper

We construct an estimate of the distribution of NICMOS observing programs and their frequencies of occurrence in the post- SMOV era. We predict a daily mean volume of 90 prime, 77 internal parallel,172 parallel with other SIs, and 30 calibration observations for a total of 369 observations. With the estimated distribution of the usage of the NICMOS readout modes, these correspond to a downlink volume of 751 Mbits per day. This expands to approximately 918 Mbytes per day of CAL class science data ingested in the Hubble Data Archive. These estimates are particularly sensitive to assumptions regarding the fraction of the observations obtained with MULTI-ACCUM mode and the fraction of observations which are background limited (i.e. requiring chopping).
