Description
This data set, part of the NASA Making Earth System Data Records for Use in Research Environments (MEaSUREs) Program, consists of three as-complete-as-possible mosaic maps of velocities on the Antarctic ice sheet for the time periods 1995–2001, 2007–2009, and 2014–2017. The maps are posted at 450 m in the WGS 84/Antarctic Polar Stereographic projection.
In addition to ice velocity, the data set provides maps of velocity error and standard deviation; counts of velocity estimates used per pixel; date ranges; and masks that delineate the ice fronts and grounding lines for the each period.
