The Gemini Data Handling System developed by the Canadian Astronomy Data Centre was required to provide a ``Quick Look'' display system to allow near real time display of image data collected by the Gemini Telescopes instruments. The Quick Look system is build around the ESO Skycat display tool, and allows distributed display of data, display of data from multiple data streams, and display of images sent incrementally. This paper describes the design and function of the Gemini Quick Look System.
