MEaSUREs Weekly to Monthly Greenland Outlet Glacier Terminus Positions from Sentinel-1 Mosaics V001
This data set consists of sub-seasonal, digitized (polyline) ice front positions for 219 outlet glaciers in Greenland. For 199 glaciers, ice front positions are digitized at a monthly resolution. For 20 glaciers in northwestern Greenland, ice front positions are digitized at a 6-12 day resolution, depending on the availability of satellite imagery. Ice front positions are derived from Sentinel-1A and Sentinel-1B synthetic aperture radar (SAR) mosaics.
