... The NICMOS calibration task is divided into two stages: calnica, which is used for every individual exposure, and calnicb, which is used after calnica on those exposures which comprise an association. The first calibration stage, calnica, ( Figure 13.1 ) performs those calibrations which can be done to a single exposure using the configuration information from its telemetry and the Calibration Data Base. ... Scale (when necessary) and subtract the dark image. ...

... The processing of these associated images presents new challenges to the HST data processing pipelines, which heretofore operated only on single images. ... Stage 1 (CALNICA) calibrates individual exposures without information from other members of the association. ... Stage 2 of calibration (CALNICB) only operates on associated images that have previously gone through CALNICA processing, and creates combined images for each distinct (non-overlapping) pointing within the association. ...
