Description

This data set contains Level-3 tomographic thickness error measurements derived from data captured by the Center for Remote Sensing of Ice Sheets (CReSIS) Multichannel Coherent Radar Depth Sounder (MCoRDS) instrument over areas including Greenland and Antarctica. The data were collected as part of NASA Operation IceBridge funded campaigns.

As of April 2019, this data set is retired and no longer available for download. We recommend using the <a href="https://nsidc.org/data/irtit3/versions/2/">IceBridge Radar L3 Tomographic Ice Thickness, Version 2</a> data set as an alternative.
