Abstract

Moving into the age of Time Domain Astronomy, robust, automated data reductions systems become essential. Here we present BANZAI-FLOYDS, a fully automated long-slit data reduction pipeline for the FLOYDS spectrograph at Las Cumbres Observatory. BANZAI-FLOYDS is fully written in Python, implementing wavelength calibration, fringe correction, object detection and tracing, telluric correction and flux calibration. The pipeline builds on the BANZAI library which handles the data flow and engineering allowing BANZAI-FLOYDS to only focus on spectroscopic processing. This design enables modularity of the processing stages allowing rapid development and encourages reuse for other spectrographs.
