CDBS (Calibration Data Base System) is a pathway of software, protocol, and procedures which starts with several groups of Instrument Scientist teams collecting all of the various forms of calibration data, packaging it and delivering to CDBS. The data is put through CDBS Operations with the end result being delivery to HST's ground system reduction pipeline (OPUS), archiving to the Data Archiving and Distribution System (DADS), and population of the CDBS on-line archives. ...
