Dear Mikala Beig

Thank you for the note. Just as a correction, your statement 'a new version is published approximately annually' is incorrect. Whereas we certainly intend creating further versions of this dataset, there is no schedule for it.  

Kind regards, Frank Paul

This data set contains a global set of glacier outlines, is intended to provide a snapshot of the world’s glaciers, and includes a single outline for each glacier. It is produced in coordination with the Global Land Ice Measurements from Space (GLIMS) initiative. The data set spans from 1 January 1950 to 31 December 2010 and a new version is published approximately annually.
