The data processing pipeline for the GUSTO mission

The Galactic Ultra-long duration Stratospheric Terahertz Observatory (GUSTO) is a stratospheric balloon mission to map 124 square degrees of the Galactic Plan and LMC in the 3 brightest interstellar cooling lines: [CII], [OI], and [NII] at 158, 63, and 205 microns, respectively. The mission will use heterodyne mixers to velocity resolve the emission lines and is planned to be launched in December of 2021.
The GUSTO data processing pipeline will produce baseline corrected data cubes available to the general community. This poster will present the approaches and challenges to be used to processes the data.
