The NASA IceBridge GPS L1B Time-Tagged Real-Time Position and Attitude Solution (IPUTN1B) data set contains elevation, roll, pitch, and heading measurements over Antarctica using the Ashtech GG24 GPS+ receiver and the Systron and Donner MMQ-50 Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU). The data were collected by scientists working on the Investigating the Cryospheric Evolution of the Central Antarctic Plate (ICECAP) project, which is funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) with additional support from NASA Operation IceBridge. The data are stored in ASCII text format and are available via FTP for periodic, ongoing campaigns from 18 November 2010 to the present.
