MEaSUREs Greenland Ice Velocity: Selected Glacier Site Velocity Maps from Optical Images V003

Metadata Updated: October 30, 2025

This data set, part of the NASA Making Earth System Data Records for Use in Research Environments (MEaSUREs) program, consists of mean monthly velocity maps for selected glacier outlet areas. The maps are generated by tracking visible features between optical image pairs acquired by the Landsat 4 and 5 Thematic Mapper (TM), the Landsat 7 Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+), the Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager (OLI), and the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER).

See Greenland Ice Mapping Project (GIMP) for related data.
