Version 2 of IceBridge LVIS L1B Geolocated Return Energy Waveforms, available at the NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center (NSIDC DAAC), has been updated to include data from 14 April 2009 to 10 May 2012. This data set contains return energy waveform data measured over Greenland, Alaska, and Antarctica by the NASA Land, Vegetation, and Ice Sensor (LVIS), an airborne lidar scanning laser altimeter. Temporal coverage now spans 14 April 2009 to 20 September 2017. Version 2 data are provided in HDF5 format.
Version 1 of this data set, which has binary files covering 14 April 2009 to 10 May 2012, will be retired from the NSIDC DAAC on March 18 2024. Upon retirement, data will no longer be accessible, but all related documentation will remain available on the Version 1 data set web page for future reference.
