Thompson, T. 1981. Proposed Format for Gridded Sea Ice Information (SIGRID). World Meteorological Organization, Geneva, Report, World Climate Program, 28 pp.The Canadian Ice Service (CIS) produces digital Arctic regional sea ice charts for marine navigation, forecasting, and climate research. 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. This digital record of 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.VIEW RELATED INFORMATIONhttps://dx.doi.org/10.7265/N51V5BW9DocumentationGET DATAhttps://noaadata.apps.nsidc.org/NOAA/G02171/HTTPSVIEW RELATED INFORMATIONhttp://nsidc.org/data/g00799.htmlArctic and Southern Ocean Sea Ice ConcentrationsVIEW RELATED INFORMATIONhttp://nsidc.org/data/g01962.htmlEnvironmental Working Group Joint U.S.-Russian Arctic Sea Ice AtlasVIEW RELATED INFORMATIONhttp://nsidc.org/data/g02172.htmlNational Ice Center Arctic Sea Ice Charts and Climatologies in Gridded FormatVIEW RELATED INFORMATIONhttp://nsidc.org/data/g02176.htmlSea Ice Charts of the Russian Arctic in Gridded Format, 1933-2006VIEW RELATED INFORMATIONhttp://nsidc.org/data/g01111.htmlThe Dehn Collection of Arctic Sea Ice Charts, 1953-1986CEOS IDN DIFVERSION 9.92009-10-092025-12-03NSIDCVersion SummaryNSIDCMinor VersionNSIDCCurrent Version1NSIDCLevel of ServiceComprehensiveNSIDCFull Dataset CitationCanadian Ice Service.
