U.S. Geological SurveyGPS AND GIS-BASED DATA COLLECTION AND IMAGE MAPPING IN THE ANTARCTIC PENINSULA

High-resolution satellite images combined with the rapidly evolving global positioning system (GPS) and geographic information system (GIS) technology may offer a quick and effective way to gather information in Antarctica. GPS- and GIS-based data collection systems are used in this project to deter...
