The Roman Space Telescope Calibration Pipeline

Version: 0.23.0.dev95+g96ce31213

This package (romancal) processes uncalibrated data from the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (Roman). The pipeline performs a series of calibration steps that result in standard data products, applying various corrections to produce science-ready, calibrated output products including individual exposures and high-level data products (mosaics, catalogs etc.).

See README.md for installation and usage instructions.

This package allows users to run and configure the calibration pipeline themselves for custom processing of Roman Telescope data, either from the command line with strun or from Python with pipeline and step functions and classes in the romancal package. Additionally, the romancal package provides Roman Telescope datamodel classes, the recommended method for reading and writing Roman Telescope data files in Python.

Note

If you have trouble installing this package, have encountered a bug while running the pipeline, or wish to request a new feature, please open an issue on GitHub or contact the Roman Telescope Help Desk.

Detailed explanations of specific calibration stages, reference files, and pipeline builds can be found on RDox.
