A 2021 glacier Inventory of the Svalbard Archipelago based on Sentinel-2 Imagery
View DatasetDescription
This dataset provides a glacier inventory for the Svalbard Archipelago, derived from cloud-free Sentinel-2 satellite imagery acquired between August 28 and September 14, 2021. Glaciers larger than 0.01 km² were delineated using a semi-automated mapping approach followed by manual correction. Glaciers were subdivided based on their respective drainage basins derived from the ArcticDEM (Porter et al., 2023). The inventory includes geometric and topographic attributes for each glacier, which are: names of the glaciers, identification code of the glaciers based on 5 digits (Hagen et al., 1993), area, elevation, slope, aspect, and Global Land Ice Measurements from Space (GLIMS) x, y and ID.The dataset is part of a manuscript under consideration for publication.
