The Roman Space Telescope Calibration Pipeline

Nancy Roman Space Telescope

Welcome to the documentation for the Roman calibration software, romancal. This package contains the Python software suite for the Roman Space Telescope (RST) calibration pipeline, which processes data from the Roman Wide-Field Instrument (WFI) by applying various corrections to produce science-ready, calibrated output products including fully calibrated individual exposures as well as high-level data products (mosaics, catalogs, etc.). The tools in this package allow users to run and configure the pipeline to custom process their Roman data. Additionally, the romancal package contains the interface to Roman datamodels, the recommended method of reading and writing Roman data files in Python.

If you have questions or concerns regarding the software, please contact the Roman Help desk at Roman Help Desk.
