Description
Summary:This dataset contains geographical features representing selected infrastructures (houses, roads, airfields, pipelines etc.) in some West Greenland towns and settlements. Each feature has attributes listing relevant classificiers, such as: - the type of infrastructure (residential building, road, pipeline, etc.) - the shape of the feature (flat, sloped, pitched, domed, barrel-shaped) - the type of surface material (wood, concrete, asphalt, etc.) - the background setting (bedrock, sediments, sea, etc.) - it current status as actively used or inactive infrastructure All feature locations and attributes have been validated either by on-site inspection, or by Google Street View imagery (validation method indicated in feature attributes). Photos are provided for most of the features that were field validated. Coverage: Median Latitude: 69.599362 * Median Longitude: -54.278125 * South-bound Latitude: 66.897500 * West-bound Longitude: -69.228000 * North-bound Latitude: 77.467000 * East-bound Longitude: -50.713000 Related to: Ingeman-Nielsen, Thomas; Lu, Wenjun; Vakulenko, Ivan; Wang, S; Aalberg, Arne; Bartsch, Annett; Høyland, Knut; Lubbad, Raed; Løset, Sveinung (2018): Calibration and validation data for circumpolar Arctic infrastructure mapping.
