ESA Greenland Ice Sheet Climate Change Initiative (Greenland_Ice_Sheet_cci): Greenland Ice Velocity Map Winter 2013-2014, v1.0
This dataset provides an ice velocity map for the whole Greenland ice-sheet for the winter of 2013-2014, derived from RADARSAT-2 data, as part of the ESA Greenland Ice Sheet Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project. The ice velocity data were derived from intensity-tracking of RADARSAT-2 data aquired between 21/1/2014 and 02/04/2014.
The data are provided on a polar stereographic grid (EPSG3413: Latitude of true scale 70N, Reference Longitude 45E). The horizontal velocity is provided in true meters per day, towards the Eastings and Northings direction of the grid; the vertical displacement, derived from a digital elevation model, is also provided. Both a single NetCDF file (including all measurements and annotation), and separate geotiff files with the velocity components are provided. This product was generated by DTU Space - Microwaves and Remote Sensing.
