Entry ID

IPPLV1B

Summary

The IceBridge LVIS POS/AV L1B Corrected Position and Attitude Data (IPPLV1B) data set contains georeferencing data from the Applanix 510 and 610 POS AV systems flown with the Land, Vegetation, and Ice Sensor (LVIS) over Greenland and Antarctica. Data parameters include latitude, longitude, altitude, velocity, roll, pitch, and heading. The data were collected as part of Operation IceBridge funded campaigns, are stored in binary format, and are available via FTP for periodic, ongoing campaigns from 07 October 2011 to the present.
