An incomplete dataset of moraine in Antarctica. Data have been prepared from various map and remotely sensed datasets. This dataset has been generalised from the high resolution version but there are some inconsistencies in this dataset and the high resolution version is recommended. Changes in v7.10 include new data for the South Orkney Islands. 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.

An incomplete dataset of moraine in Antarctica. Data have been prepared from various map and remotely sensed datasets. Changes in v7.10 include new data for the South Orkney Islands and the correction of some erroneous polygons.

A very incomplete dataset of surface lakes in Antarctica. Data have been prepared from various map and remotely sensed datasets. Changes in v7.10 include new data for the South Orkney Islands and small regions of the Nordenskjold coast. 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.

A continuous, smoothed contour dataset at 500 m intervals for all land south of 60degS, excluding the Balleny Islands. The vertical datum of the contours is EGM2008. Contours are extracted primarily from the PGC Reference Elevation Model of Antarctica (REMA) v1.1 with certain islands filled from Copernicus WorldDEM. Peter I Oy contours are from the Norwegian Polar Institute. Sources of individual line segments are contained in the attribute table and full compilation information is given in the lineage statement.
-
A vector polyline at 60 deg S which is the northern limit for ADD datasets.
-
A very incomplete dataset of streams in Antarctica. Data mainly cover Byers Peninsula, Deception Island, James Ross and Seymour islands, Fossil Bluff and some areas of the Transantarctic Mountains. Exact data sources can be found in the attribute table.

A continuous contour dataset at 100 m intervals for all land south of 60degS, excluding the Balleny Islands. The vertical datum of the contours is EGM2008. Contours are extracted primarily from the PGC Reference Elevation Model of Antarctica (REMA) v1.1 with certain islands filled from Copernicus WorldDEM. Further small areas are interpreted from satellite imagery, and Peter I Oy contours are from the Norwegian Polar Institute. Sources of individual line segments are contained in the attribute table and full compilation information is given in the lineage statement. Note: contours overlap the coastline in small areas, due to resolution of the data used in creation of the lines, and potential errors in coastline and/or contour data. Certain areas are known to contain erroneous data due to faults in the original DEM data.
