Abstract

AbstractGaia is an ESA cornerstone mission which will observe some billion stars in the galaxy enabling micro-arcsec astrometric catalogues to be constructed. In addition Gaia will produce high quality photometric and spectroscopic catalogues.The data processing tasks are large and complex. A European consortium has been formed - the Gaia Data Processing and Analysis Consortium (DPAC). This paper describes the form of the UK Gaia Data Flow System Project contribution to the DPAC.
