CalibrationObservationComplexType 

Description of a generic spectroscopic calibration observation. Like <Observation>, this is mostly a place-holder which merely says "Do an appropriate calibration right now using the present parameters." What constitutes an "appropriate" calibration observation should be decided by the server and the context of the element, but this presumably entails doing something like observing a wavelength standard (e.g. between sequences of normal observations to insure wavelength calibration stability) or taking a flat-field exposure.
