... Before being able to actually reduce and analyse a new set of observations, the observer has to prepare, sort out and arrange the data. That is, for instance, make a first quality check, classify data according to a set of rules and associate with each science frame a set of relevant calibration frames . This task can be cumbersome because of the complexity of the instruments and the large number and the diversity of the data files they produce. ...
