A new version of this dataset exists. To see the last version of the Antarctic Digital Database, have a look here: https://data.bas.ac.uk/collections/e74543c0-4c4e-4b41-aa33-5bb2f67df389/ High resolution dataset of rock outcrop in Antarctica. Data have been prepared from various map and remotely sensed datasets ranging from 1990s-2019. The large majority of data was compiled in 1993 and the quality and accuracy is uncertain. The automatically extracted rock outcrop layer provides a more accurate dataset in most locations.

A rock outcrop dataset for all of Antarctica, automatically extracted from Landsat 8 imagery. The original dataset was published in the following paper ''An automated methodology for differentiating rock from snow, clouds and sea in Antarctica from Landsat 8 imagery: a new rock outcrop map and area estimation for the entire Antarctic continent'', The Cryosphere, 10, pp1665-1677, doi:10.5194/tc-10-1665-2016. This version has been updated in places to match the current coastline, and areas outside of the ADD data limit have been removed.

High resolution dataset of rock outcrop in Antarctica. Data have been prepared from various map and remotely sensed datasets ranging from 1960s-2023. The large majority of data was compiled in 1993 and the quality and accuracy is uncertain. The automatically extracted rock outcrop layer provides a more accurate dataset in most locations. Changes in v7.10 include new data for the South Orkney Islands. Source attributes have also been added for some of the older data, although many are still missing. See the lineage for further details. 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.

Medium resolution dataset of rock outcrop in Antarctica. Data have been prepared from various map and remotely sensed datasets ranging from 1960s-2019. This dataset has been generalised from the high resolution version. The large majority of data was compiled in 1993 and the quality and accuracy is uncertain.
