This dataset contains ice velocities for the Greenland northern drainage basin for 1991-1992.This dataset has been produced by the ESA Greenland Ice Sheet Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project. This dataset consists of ice velocity maps which have been generated from SAR data from the ERS-1 satellite, for winter 1991-1992. The data is supplied on a 500m polar stereographic grid. The ice velocity product contain the horizontal components, vN and vE, of the total velocity vector, which is derived from radar measurements assuming surface parallel flow. The used digital elevation model of the surface is also supplied. The North and East velocities at any grid points are given in a local geographic north-east coordinates system (and not in the used grid map projection system).

This dataset contains a time series of ice velocities for the Helheim Glacier in Greenland derived from Sentinel-1 SAR data acquired between between 17/1/2015 and 11/6/2016. It has been produced by the ESA Greenland Ice Sheet Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project. Data files are delivered in NetCDF format at 250m grid spacing in North Polar Stereographic projection (EPSG: 3413).

The data set provides calving front locations of 28 major outlet glaciers of the Greenland Ice Sheet using ERS and ENVISAT and Sentinel-1 SAR data. A selected number of the glaciers have been sampled seasonally, whilst the rest are sampled annually. The Calving Front Location (CFL) of outlet glaciers from ice sheets is a basic parameter for ice dynamic modelling, for computing the mass fluxes at the calving gate, and for mapping glacier area change. From the ice velocity at the calving front and the time sequence of Calving Front Locations the iceberg calving rate can be computed which is of relevance for estimating the export of ice mass to the ocean. The CFL product is a collection of ESRI shapefile in latitude and longitude, WGS84 projection.

This dataset contains a time series of ice velocities for the Kangerlussuaq glacier in Greenland, derived from intensity-tracking of ERS-1, ERS-2 and Envisat data aquired between 02/01/1992 and 17/12/2008. The data provides components of the ice velocity and the magnitude of the velocity, and has been produced by the ESA Greenland Ice Sheet Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project. The data are provided on a polar stereographic grid (EPSG3413: Latitude of true scale 70N, Reference Longitude 45E) with 500m grid spacing. The image pairs used have a repeat cycle between 3 and 35 days. The horizontal velocity is provided in true meters per day, towards the EASTING(x) and NOTHING(y) directions of the grid, and the vertical displacement (z), derived from a digital elevation model, is also provided. The product was generated by GEUS (Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland).

This dataset contains a time series of ice velocities for the Jakobshavn glacier in Greenland between 2002 and 2010. This dataset has been produced by the ESA Greenland Ice Sheet Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project. This dataset consists of a time series of ice velocity maps which have been generated from IS mode images from the ASAR instrument on the ENVISAT satellite, with a 35 day repeat cycle, and are supplied on a 500m polar stereographic grid. The ice velocity product contain the horizontal components, vN and vE, of the total velocity vector, which is derived from radar measurements assuming surface parallel flow. The used digital elevation model of the surface is also supplied. The North and East velocities at any grid points are given in a local geographic north-east coordinates system (and not in the used grid map projection system).

This dataset contains a time series of ice velocities for the Storstromemmen glacier in Greenland, derived from Sentinel-1 SAR data acquired between 26/1/2015 and 8/6/2016. It has been produced by the ESA Greenland Ice Sheet Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project. Data files are delivered in NetCDF format at 250m grid spacing in North Polar Stereographic projection (EPSG: 3413). The horizontal velocity components are provided in true meters per day, towards the EASTING(x) and NORTHING(y) directions of the grid.

This dataset contains ice velocities for the Greenland Northern Drainage Basin for winter 1991-1992, which have been produced as part of the ESA Greenland Ice Sheet Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project. The data has been derived from intensity-tracking of ERS-1 Ice phase (3 days repeat) data aquired between 29th December 1991 and 22nd March 1992. The data are provided on a polar stereographic grid (EPSG3413: Latitude of true scale 70N, Reference Longitude 45E). The horizontal velocity is provided in true meters per day, towards EASTING(x) and NORTHING(y) direction of the grid, and the vertical displacement (z), derived from a digital elevation model, is also provided. (Please note that in earlier versions of this product the horizontal velocities were provided as true East and North velocities). Both a single NetCDF file (including all measurements and annotation), and separate geotiff files with the velocity components are provided. The product was generated by DTU Space - Microwaves and Remote Sensing. Please note - this product was released on the Greenland Ice Sheets download page in June 2016, but an earlier product (also accidentally labelled v1.1) was available through the CCI Open Data Portal and the CEDA archive until 29th November 2016. Please now use this later v1.1 product.
