In cooperation with the World Glacier Monitoring Service (WGMS), NOAA@NSIDC has released an updated version of the World Glacier Inventory (WGI). The WGMS and the NOAA@NSIDC team jointly revised and updated the WGI based on additional sources from the literature. The database stores geographical coordinates of glacier label points and tabular information about glacier classification, area, length, orientation, and altitude range.
