The ice charts are created through the manual analysis of in situ, satellite, and aerial reconnaissance data. The ice charts have information on ice concentration, stage of development, and ice form, following World Meteorological Organization terminology. These sea ice charts begin in 2006 and cover the following regions of the Canadian Arctic: Northern Canadian waters (Western Arctic, Eastern Arctic, and Hudson Bay) and Southern Canadian waters (Great Lakes and East Coast). Each regional shapefile (.shp) (encoded in SIGRID-3 format) and associated metadata file (.xml) are combined into a tar archive file (.tar) for distribution. All data are available via FTP. scientific research Canadian Ice Service, . 20091009 Canadian Ice Service Arctic Regional Sea Ice Charts in SIGRID-3 Format Boulder, Colorado USA NSIDC: National Snow and Ice Data Center http://nsidc.org/data/docs/noaa/g02171_CIS_seaice_regional/index.html 20060101 Unknown publication date In work Unknown -164.05002 21.96925 83.19372 39.52777 NASA Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords EARTH SCIENCE > Cryosphere > Sea Ice > Sea Ice Concentration EARTH SCIENCE > Oceans > Sea Ice > Sea Ice Concentration None NASA Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Platform Keywords AIRCRAFT SATELLITES SHIPS ISO 19115 Topic Categories climatologyMeteorologyAtmosphere None Arctic Arctic Ocean Arctic Ocean Basin Arctic Sea Ice Canadian Arctic Canadian Ice Service Great Lakes Ice Chart Ice Concentration Ice Form Sea Ice Sea Ice Concentration Sea Ice Form Sea Ice Stage Of Development Stage Of Development NASA Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Location Keywords Continent > North America > Canada > Great Lakes, Canada Continent > North America > Canada > Hudson Bay Ocean > Arctic Ocean 2 NASA Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords EARTH SCIENCE > Cryosphere > Sea Ice > Sea Ice Concentration NASA Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords EARTH SCIENCE > Oceans > Sea Ice > Sea Ice Concentration None None NSIDC User Services National Snow and Ice Data Center mailing
