Release Schedules

The table below summarizes the present release schedule of NASA ICESat/GLAS data: Release-33. The table is ordered by release date, with the most recently received campaign listed first. We recommend you work with the latest release of data which is the highest release number and includes improvements to product algorithms. For information on past releases of ICESat/GLAS data, see the Past Release Schedule Web page.

Note:  While ICESat/GLAS data are being reprocessed to Release-33 for all laser campaigns, Release-31 data will remain available for ordering.  Release-33 data should not be mixed with any other data release for science analysis.
