Kangerdlugssuaq Glacier surface elevations, 2012-2018

A time series of the mean surface elevation along a transect across Kangerdlugssuaq Glacier from Feb 2012 to May 2018. : 113 digital elevation models (DEMs) between 13/02/2012 and 09/05/2018 were generated interferometrically from TanDEM-X synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data supplied by DLR.

Description
Summary:A time series of the mean surface elevation along a transect across Kangerdlugssuaq Glacier from Feb 2012 to May 2018. : 113 digital elevation models (DEMs) between 13/02/2012 and 09/05/2018 were generated interferometrically from TanDEM-X synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data supplied by DLR. The mean surface elevation along a 5.4 km profile, at an elevation of approximately 330 m, between (68.662°N, 32.994°W) and (68.632°N, 33.096°W) was calculated for each DEM. : The interferometry was carried out using Gamma Remote Sensing software. : Relative accuracy is probably +/- 2 m, absolute accuracy +/- 10 m.
