Space based CCDs suffer continual bombardment from the hostile radiation environment which gradually degrades their performance and potentially limits their operational lifetime. As part of our effort to enhance the calibration of STIS (a spectrograph on-board the Hubble Space Telescope), we have developed a model of the readout process for CCD detectors suffering from degraded charge transfer efficiency. The model enables us to make predictive corrections to data obtained with such detectors. We present examples of the corrections possible using this technique and compare them to what can be achieved using a more conventional empirical approach. In addition we discuss some of the difficulties of providing users with automated implementations of this this kind of data analysis software.
