East Greenland (66.3 and 68.4°N) glacier front position shape files
This data set consists of satellite based study of East Greenland in particular 260 km-long section of coastline between 66.3 and 68.4◦N, used to explore glacier change from 1985 to 2019. Imagery were downloaded from the USGS website EarthExplorer (U.S. Geological Survey USGS, 1995). We sought image...
