Abstract
The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) is a very complex astronomical observ ing facility, producing data with unique calibration and analysis requ irements. The data are collected in Science Data Archives which are av ailable through computer networks world wide. This pager describes the approaches and technologies which are being used at the Space Telesco pe European Coordinating Facility (ST-ECF) to enable users in differen t institutions to efficiently work with HST data.
