Scientific paper

SNAP is a concept for a dark energy mission featuring Type Ia supernovae and weak lensing surveys leading to a precise measurement of the dark energy equation of state. The mission concept includes a wide-angle imager in nine filters and an integral field spectrograph estimated to generate approximately 250 Gigabytes of raw data per day. This poster will describe the Science Operations pipeline and the anticipated data products. The products will include time-domain and co-added catalogues for a deep 7.5 square degree field and catalogues for a wider, but shallower (roughly equivalent to the Hubble Deep Field for point sources), field of 1000 square degrees. An extended mission would expand the wide survey to 4000 square degrees. All catalogues will include all nine filters and will be accessible on the Virtual Observatory.
