    Abstract

    As part of the Hubble Space Telescope UV Legacy Survey of Galactic globular clusters,110 parallel fields were observed with the Wide Field Channel of the Advanced Camera forSurveys, in the outskirts of 48 globular clusters, plus the open cluster NGC6791. Totallingabout 0.3 deg2 of observed sky, this is the largest homogeneous Hubble Space Telescopephotometric survey of Galalctic globular clusters outskirts to date. In particular, two distinctpointings have been obtained for each target on average, all centred at about 6.5 arcmin fromthe cluster centre, thus covering a mean area of about 23 arcmin2 for each globular cluster. Foreach field, at least one exposure in both F475W and F814W filters was collected. In this work, we publicly release the astrometric and photometric catalogues and the astrometrized atlasesfor each of these fields.
