Scientific paper

An overview of the procedures required for reduction of Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field/Planetary Camera images is presented, based on WFPC performance as observed during ground tests. Camera artifacts that must be removed prior to analysis of WFPC images are characterized. WFPC flat-field and dark-current images are also presented. Special emphasis is given to the design of WFPC imaging programs that minimize the effects of camera artifacts on image analysis.
