MEaSUREs Greenland Ice Velocity: Selected Glacier Site Velocity Maps from InSAR V001

Version 1 eng; usa
  • Abstract
    This data set is part of the NASA Making Earth System Data Records for Use in Research Environments (MEaSUREs) program. This data set provides maps of glacier outlet areas, some of which have shown profound velocity changes over the MEaSUREs observation period. The data are provided in addition to the ice-sheet-wide data from the related data set, MEaSUREs Greenland Ice Sheet Velocity Map from InSAR Data. The InSAR Selected Glacier Site Velocity Maps are produced from TerraSAR-X (TSX) image pairs collected between 1 January, 2009 and 14 January, 2016.See the Version History section of the documentation for changes made in v1.2.See Greenland Ice Mapping Project (GIMP) for related data.
