Calibration software for HST/WFC3, HST/ACS, and HST/STIS.
Nightly regression test results are available only from within the STScI network at this time. https://plwishmaster.stsci.edu:8081/job/RT/job/hstcal/test_results_analyzer/
HSTCAL can be obtained as part of the
Space Telescope Environment (stenv) at https://stenv.readthedocs.io/en/latest/,
a conda environment. The instructions found at this URL describe choosing Miniconda
or Anaconda (if not already installed), choosing the stenv release, building the stenv
environment from the YAML file, and activating your new environment. Once your environment
is activated, you can invoke any of the HSTCAL executables.
