MEaSUREs InSAR-Based Antarctica Ice Velocity Map V002

Metadata Updated: August 23, 2025

This data set, part of the NASA Making Earth System Data Records for Use in Research Environments (MEaSUREs) Program, provides the first comprehensive, high-resolution, digital mosaics of ice motion in Antarctica assembled from multiple satellite interferometric, synthetic-aperture radar systems. Data were largely acquired during the International Polar Years 2007 to 2009, as well as between 2013 and 2016. Additional data acquired between 1996 and 2016 were used as needed to maximize coverage.

See Antarctic Ice Sheet Velocity and Mapping Data for related data.
