MEaSUREs Greenland Ice Sheet Velocity Map from InSAR Data, Version 2 Released

The NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center (NSIDC DAAC) has released Version 2 of MEaSUREs Greenland Ice Sheet Velocity Map from InSAR Data. This update offers users a new winter velocity map for 2009/2010 plus processing enhancements that include:
  • Additional quality control screening to remove bad data points;
  • Improved baseline fits that enhance consistency in the interior;
  • Updated error estimates that better represent the average behavior of the data;
  • The addition of ALOS fine-beam data to improve coverage
This project was funded by the NASA Making Earth System Data Records for Use in Research Environments (MEaSUREs) program. To obtain these data, visit MEaSUREs Greenland Ice Sheet Velocity Map from InSAR Data, Version 2 (DOI: 10.5067/IAGYM8Q26QRE).
