Medium resolution vector contours for Antarctica

Complete Antarctic contour dataset, split and labelled according to whether the contour represents an ice or rock surface. Data have been prepared from various map and remotely sensed datasets. Due to the differing sources, this dataset has inconsistent intervals between contour lines. The dataset h...

Description
Summary:Complete Antarctic contour dataset, split and labelled according to whether the contour represents an ice or rock surface. Data have been prepared from various map and remotely sensed datasets. Due to the differing sources, this dataset has inconsistent intervals between contour lines. The dataset has been generalised from the high resolution contour dataset in some areas. Further information regarding source and source data can be found within the high resolution attribute table. Certain inconsistencies and errors are currently known and a comprehensive update is planned for version 7.3. : Dataset generalised from the high resolution contour dataset. Full details can be found in the metadata and attribute table of this high resolution dataset.
