Knowledge of the permafrost flow field provides important information about the origin, morphology, development, dynamics and internal structure of creeping mountain permafrost. Monitoring permafrost behavior helps detecting climate signals. Aerial photogrammetry was used for determining digital terrain models (DTM) with high resolution.VIEW RELATED INFORMATIONhttp://nsidc.org/data/docs/fgdc/ggd293_rockglac_switzer/index.htmlDocumentationGET DATAftp://sidads.colorado.edu/pub/DATASETS/fgdc/ggd293_rockglac_switzer/FTPCEOS IDN DIFVERSION 9.91998-01-012025-10-07NSIDCVersion SummaryNSIDCMinor VersionNSIDCCurrent Version1NSIDCLevel of ServiceBasicNSIDCFull Dataset CitationKaeaeb, A.
