This dataset contains the location of the grounding line along George VI Ice Shelf (West Antarctic Peninsula), Wilkins Ice Shelf and Bach Ice Shelf (Alexander Island), as determined from a compilation of datasets, including double-differential interferometric synthetic aperture radar (DInSAR) from Sentinel-1 imagery acquired May-October 2020, Sentinel-1 grounding-line information from 2018 (Mohajerani et al., 2021) and the MEaSUREs 1994-1996 grounding line dataset (Rignot et al., 2016). The dataset is provided in ESRI Shapefile (.shp) format. ... : This research was undertaken while KB was in receipt of a United Kingdom Natural Environment Research Council PhD studentship awarded through the University of Cambridge C-CLEAR Doctoral Training Partnership (grant number: NE/S007164/1).
