| Summary: | To better understand processes affecting the ice sheets and to supply boundary condition information into ice sheet models and ice thickness for other ice sheet analysis, the Center for Remote Sensing of Ice Sheets (CReSIS) has designed, developed, and deployed a near high frequency (33-37 MHz) radar depth sounder in Greenland. An uninhabited aerial vehicle (UAV), dubbed the G1XB, was modified to carry this HF sounder. This dataset contains data collected at Russell Glacier in Greenland to demonstrate the system. These KML files show the location of each data frame and data segment for the radar echograms in the dataset. Files are named according to the formats: Browse_Data_{$segment_id}.kml and Browse_{$season_id}.kml. Only a few data points are included to allow for quick download and browsing. There is one KML file per segment and then one KML with all segments (entire season). The per segment files contain information per frame and more data points. The season file contains information for each segment and fewer data points. More information can be found in “Readme.pdf”. |
