This data set, part of the NASA's Making Earth System Data Records for Use in Research Environments (MEaSUREs) program, provides a complete 15 m resolution image mosaic of the Greenland ice sheet, derived from USGS Landsat 7 ETM+ imagery and Canadian Space Agency's (CSA) RADARSAT-1 imagery from the years 1999 to 2002. Additional bands (some at 30 m resolution) are provided for each tile in the mosaic and are useful for understanding surface properties, such as snow grain size, bedrock outcrops, mapping layering in the snow, and blue ice or lake-filled regions, during the spring and summer months. The panchromatic (band 8) mosaic provides the highest-resolution view of the ice sheet surface at 15 m, resolving topographic features, large crevasses, and other geophysical structures.

The previous version incorrectly specified the location of the upper left pixel as the distance in meters from the north pole to the center of the upper left pixel. The corrected location of the upper left pixel is the distance in meters from the north pole to the upper left corner of the upper left pixel. This correction effectively shifted the location by one-half pixel to the upper left relative to their positions in the previous version. Only the geolocation metadata in each GeoTIFF have changed; the data array is the same as in the previous version.1999-06-302002-09-040NSIDCUpdate Frequencyupdated 2018NSIDCCurrent Version1NSIDCSpatial Reference SystemsEPSG:3413WGS 84 / NSIDC Sea Ice Polar Stereographic NorthNSIDCLevel of ServiceComprehensiveNSIDCFull Dataset CitationHowat, I.
