| contents | During the summer field campaigns within the period November 2010 to March 2013, intensive repeat measurements with Differential GPS (DGPS) at static points of the mass balance stakes as well as kinematic tracks along a grid covering Fourcade and Polar Club glaciers on the Potter Peninsula and the Bellinghausen Dome on the Fieldes Peninsula were carried out. Data was gridded and interpolated to come up with a more exact topography (digital elevation model) for the area of investigation. Data was used to assess glacier velocities. Kinematic tracks were gridded and interpolated to come up with a more exact topography (digital elevation model) for the area of investigation. The data also serves as ground truthing for georeferencing of satellite imagery data by providing exact position coordinates of distinct land marks. |
