This is an overview of the processing of the dispersed images for the Blue and RedPhotometers in the Gaia Satellite. The data are corrected for CCD related effects in thepre-processing, where also the sky background and the flux by neighbours are removed; thedata are then internally calibrated to the same “mean instrument” and externallycalibrated to obtain spectrum and flux in physical units, which will be stored in thefinal catalogue.
