| Summary: | As the WET moves to CCD systems, we move away from the uniformity of the standard WET photometer into an arena where each system can be radically different. There are many possible CCD photometry systems that can fulfil the requirements of a WET instrument, but each of these will have their own unique native data format. During XCov22, it became readily apparent that the WET requires a defined data format for all CCD data that arrives at HQ. This paper describes the proposed format for the next generation of WET data; the final version will be the default format for XQED, the new photometry package discussed elsewhere in these proceedings. |
