Abstract
The Space Telescope-European Coordinating Facility (ST-ECF) is undertaking a joint project with the Canadian Astronomy Data Centre and the Space Telescope Science Institute to build a Hubble Legacy Archive (HLA) that contains science ready high level data products to be used in the Virtual Observatory (VO). The ST-ECF will provide extracted slitless spectra to the HLA, and for this purpose has developed the Pipeline for Hubble Legacy Archive Grism data (PHLAG). PHLAG is an end-to-end pipeline that performs an unsupervised reduction of slitless data taken with the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) or the Near Infrared Camera and Multi Object Spectrometer (NICMOS) and ingests the VO compatible spectra into the HLA. PHLAG is a modular pipeline, and the various modules and their roles are discussed. In a pilot study, PHLAG is applied to NICMOS data taken with the G141 grism, and the first results of a run on all available data are shown.
