To see the last version of the Antarctic Digital Database, have a look here: https://data.bas.ac.uk/items/e74543c0-4c4e-4b41-aa33-5bb2f67df389/ Coastline for Antarctica created from various mapping and remote sensing sources, consisting of the following coast types: ice coastline, rock coastline, grounding line, ice shelf and front, ice rumple, and rock against ice shelf. Covering all land and ice shelves south of 60S. Suitable for topographic mapping and analysis. This dataset has been generalised from the high resolution vector polyline. Medium resolution versions of ADD data are suitable for scales smaller than 1:1,000,000, although certain regions will appear more detailed than others due to variable data availability and coastline characteristics. Changes in v7.7 include updates Brunt Ice Shelf, ice fronts on the east side of the Antarctic Peninsula, Pine Island and Thwaites Glaciers and the ice fronts and coastline around Charcot Island. Data quality checks were also performed to ensure existing features were categorised correctly around Getz Ice Shelf. Data compiled, managed and distributed by the Mapping and Geographic Information Centre and the UK Polar Data Centre, British Antarctic Survey on behalf of the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research.

The second edition of the Antarctic Digital Database (ADD) coastline polyline dataset. A compilation of source data from eleven national mapping agencies at data scales no larger than 1:200,000/1:250:000. Line dataset was originally published on CD-ROM in 1998, in tiled Coverage format. Data has since been converted merged to a single dataset and exported to shapefile and geopackage formats. Scale0 is the highest resolution that was produced. ADD Version 2.0 contained many amendments to the original data. Most corrections were made in Quadrant 4, which covers the Antarctic Peninsula, parts of Ellsworth Land and Coats Land. A few features such as Doake Ice Rumples, were inadvertently omitted from ADD Version 1.0, so were included in this version for the first time. Data for the Ronne and Filchner ice shelves were also upgraded. A new map of James Ross Island was incorporated, and the positions of ice fronts of the northern Larsen Ice Shelf, Wordie Ice Shelf and Wilkins Ice Shelf were also amended using the latest available information. Other minor changes were also made and documented in the ADD Manual (https://nora.nerc.ac.uk/id/eprint/536533/). The UK Consortium behind the ADD Version 1.0, passed the ongoing maintenance and revision of the ADD to British Antarctic Survey (BAS) for Version 2.0. For full details on the dataset, please refer to the ADD Manual v2.0: https://nora.nerc.ac.uk/id/eprint/536533/.

The second edition of the Antarctic Digital Database (ADD) coastline polygon dataset. A compilation of source data from eleven national mapping agencies at data scales no larger than 1:200,000/1:250:000. Polygon dataset was originally published on CD-ROM in 1998, in tiled Coverage format. Data has since been converted and merged to a single dataset and exported to shapefile and geopackage formats. Scale0 is the highest resolution that was produced. Each polygon has a surface attribute (CST00SRF) indicating the type of feature it represents, ie. ice shelf, ice tongue, land, ocean and rumple. For information on the source of polygon delineations, refer to coincident features in the polyline dataset, Scale0 vector polylines of the Antarctic coastline v2.0.

High resolution (Scale0) polyline dataset of the Antarctic Coastline. A compilation of source data from eleven national mapping agencies at data scales no larger than 1:200,000/1:250:000. Line dataset was originally published in tiled Coverage format. Data has since been converted and merged to a single dataset and exported to shapefile and geopackage formats. Scale0 is the highest resolution that was produced. Changes in ADD Version 3.0 included ammendments to ice shelf positions, including many other minor corrections. These are available to view in detail in the ADD Manual (https://nora.nerc.ac.uk/id/eprint/20362/). Funding was recieved from Scientific Committee for Antarctic Research (SCAR) in 1999 which enabled British Antarctic Survey (BAS) to compile, manage and distribute the ADD.
