Data set:
ATL11
This is the most recent version of these data.
Version Summary
Version Summary
Changes for this version include:
- Added cycles 12, 13, and 14 of the ICESat-2 data.
- Removed orbit specific parameters from /orbit_info group as crossing time, rgt, orbit_number, and sc_orient are not needed for ATL11.
- Implemented mean-tide inclusion for converting geoid heights.
Overview
This data set provides time series of land-ice surface heights derived from the ICESat-2 ATL06 Land Ice Height product. It is intended primarily as an input for higher level gridded products, but can also be used on its own as a spatially organized product that allows easy access to height-change information derived from ICESat-2 observations.
