      <abstract>The IceBridge LVIS L1B Geolocated Return Energy Waveforms (ILVIS1B) data set contains Greenland and Antarctica laser altimetry return energy waveform measurements taken from the NASA Land, Vegetation, and Ice Sensor (LVIS). The data were collected as part of Operation IceBridge funded campaigns, and are stored in big-endian binary format and are available for periodic, ongoing campaigns from 16 April 2009 to the present via FTP.</abstract>
