New High Resolution Map of Antarctica

The Polar Geospatial Center (PGC) has released a high resolution, time-stamped Digital Surface Model (DSM) of Antarctica. This beautiful and important dataset can be viewed in your browser and downloaded to your Geographic Information System (GIS). An important milestone in mapping, this product also allows researchers to measure the impact of global warming over time.

The Polar Geospatial Center (PGC) is a polar science and logistics support organization at the University of Minnesota with core funding provided by the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) Office of Polar Programs (OPP).
