All WFC3 and ACS images retrieved from the HST archive
after 11 July 2012 get processed using AstroDrizzle, the replacement for
MultiDrizzle in the new DrizzlePac package. Full information about this new
software, including the
new DrizzlePac Handbook, can be found at the DrizzlePac home page: http://drizzlepac.stsci.edu

MultiDrizzle automates and simplifies the detection of cosmic-rays and the
combination of dithered observations using the Python scripting language and PyRAF, the Python-based interface to
IRAF. MultiDrizzle was developed by the Science Software Branch at the Space
Telescope Science Institute.
A new
Multidrizzle Handbook has been written to describe the algorithms used
by Multidrizzle, to provide instructions on how to run MultiDrizzle, to
provide an extensive set of examples, and to describe the parameters used
by MultiDrizzle. The Handbook can be accessed either as a
static PDF document or as
static HTML pages.
Updates or corrections to the officially reviewed PDF or HTML documents
can be found in What's New.
This material has been developed since the last version of the Handbook
was made available and includes material which can immediately benefit users
of Multidrizzle. This material may change before the next version of the
Multidrizzle Handbook gets produced, but represents the best current information
available at the time.
You can download MultiDrizzle as part of the complete
stsci_python package from our download
