It also executes the algorithms that turn Gaia's raw telemetry into the final scientific data products that are released for usage by the wider scientific community. DPAC has been in place since 2006 developing the data processing algorithms, the corresponding software, and the IT infrastructure for Gaia. With members from more than 20 countries, the consortium brings together skills and expertise from across the continent, reflecting the international nature and cooperative spirit of ESA itself.ÄPAC data processing centres are located in five European countries. Gaia DPAC, in collaboration with ESA, is responsible for processing and analysing Gaia's data and for producing the Gaia Catalogues. The Gaia Data Processing and Analysis ConsortiumÄ®xpert scientists and software developers from across Europe and beyond are teamed up in the Data Processing and Analysis Consortium (DPAC).
