These data contain photogrammetrical data collected by unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in July 2018 at Eqip Sermia Glacier. The data include processed data (orthoimage and digital elevation models) with the Structure-fom-Motion photogrammetrical software Agisoft Photoscan. For each, processed and raw, data are organized by glacier surveys with the following convention GLACIER_YYYYMMDD_HHMM or GLACIER_YYYYMMDD_HHMM_N. For instance : eqip_20180708_1225 contains the Data of the LARGE-SCALE survey of Eqip glacier that started on July 8, 2018 at 12:25 UTC time. eqip_20180707_1245_1 contains the Data of the FIRST repeat survey of the calving front of Eqip glacier that started on July 7, 2018 at 12:45 UTC time, eqip_20180707_1245_2 is the second repeat survey, eqip_20180707_1245_3 is the third and eqip_20180707_1245_4 is the last. Coordinate system used is UTM Zone 22W based on WGS84 Take-off and landing site latitude and longitude was ( 69.757767 , - 50.228172 ) This dataset is related to the article "High-endurance UAV for monitoring calving glaciers: Application to the Inglefield Bredning and Eqip Sermia, Greenland", G.
