In this report, we present the results of our analysis of trace position changes during NIRISS/SOSS observations. We examine the visit-to-visit impact of the GR700XD pupil wheel (PW) position alignment on trace positions for spectral orders 1 and 2 using the data obtained to date. Our goal is to improve the wavelength solution by correlating the trace positions on the detector with the PW position angle. We find that there is a one-to-one correspondence between PW position and spectral trace rotation for both orders. This allowed us in turn to find an analytic model that is able to predict a trace position/shape as a function of PW position with sub-pixel accuracy of about ~0.1 pixels. Such a function can be used to predict the trace position in low signal-to-noise ratio cases, and/or as a template to track trace position changes as function of time in Time Series Observations (TSOs).
