Tungnafellsjökull is a small ice-cap in the center of the Icelandic highlands. Little has been known about the long term evolution of the ice-cap during the last decades. To estimate the long term geodetic-balance of Tungnafellsjökull, the method of photogrammetry was used for creation of digital el...
