ESA Greenland Ice Sheet Climate Change Initiative (Greenland_Ice_Sheet_cci): Ice Velocity time series for the Upernavik Glacier for 2014-2017 from Sentinel-1 data, v1.1

This dataset contains a time series of ice velocities for the Upernavik Glacier in Greenland, derived from Sentinel-1 SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) data acquired between October 2014 and March 2017. This dataset has been produced by the ESA Greenland Ice Sheet Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project.

Data files are delivered in NetCDF format at 250m grid spacing in North Polar Stereographic projection (EPSG: 3413). The horizontal velocity components are provided in true meters per day, towards the EASTING(x) and NORTHING(y) directions of the grid.
