Help on the Results MapX
This window can be dragged by its header, and can be resized from the bottom right corner.
Clicking the Layers button - the blue square in the top left of the Results Map - will display a list of map layers you can add or remove
from the currently displayed map view.
The Results Map and the Results Table
- The Results Map displays the centroids of the geographic bounds of all the results returned by the search.
- Results that are displayed in the current map view will be highlighted in blue and brought to the top of the Results Table.
- As the map is panned or zoomed, the highlighted rows in the table will update.
- If you click on a centroid on the map, it will turn yellow and display a popup with details for that project/dataset - including a link to the landing page. The bounds for the project(s)/dataset(s) selected will be displayed in red. The selected result(s) will be highlighted in red and brought to the top of the table.
- The default table sorting order is: Selected, Visible, Date (descending), but this can be changed by clicking on column headers in the table.
- Selecting Show on Map for an individual row will both display the geographic bounds for that result on a mini map, and also display the bounds and highlight the centroid on the Results Map.
- Clicking the 'Show boundaries' checkbox at the top of the Results Map will display all the bounds for the filtered results.
Defining a search area on the Results Map
- If you click on the Rectangle or Polygon icons in the top right of the Results Map, you can define a search area which will be added to any other search criteria already selected.
- After you have drawn a polygon, you can edit it using the Edit Geometry dropdown in the search form at the top.
- Clicking Clear in the map will clear any drawn polygon.
- Clicking Search in the map, or Search on the form will have the same effect.
- The returned results will be any projects/datasets with bounds that intersect the polygon.
- Use the Exclude project/datasets checkbox to exclude any projects/datasets that cover the whole Antarctic region.
Viewing map layers on the Results Map

2022-07-24 | Blankenship, Donald D.; Young, Duncan A.; Kempf, Scott D. | No project link provided | These data represent the 1-km decimated version of the SOAR ice thickness data provided to the Bedmap2 project, collected as part of various projects between 1991 and 2001. It encompasses the Corridor Aerogeophysics of the South East Ross Zone (CASERTZ) surveys of the Byrd Subglacial Basin (BSB), Bindschadler Ice Stream (WAZ/TKD), and the upstream catchments of Kamb Ice Steam and Willians Ice Stream (IRE); targeted West Antarctic glaciology projects (IPB/WAZ/DVD/STI/LIV); corridors across the Transantarctic Mountains to South Pole (PPT) and Dome C (WLK); and a version of the Lake Vostok dataset (LVS). Data were collected as stacked log detected traces by the SOAR TUD IV system with an attached digitizer. The digitizer was significantly updated in 1997 (RTZ6). Data interpretation approaches can be found in Blankenship et al., 2001. Data is in ASCII format. Transects are separated by GMT style segment headers with the transect name. Columns are: 1. Year 2.

These aerogeophysical data were collected during the seventh ICECAP field season in 2015-16, and interpreted as part of the SPICECAP project. They consist of 7 survey flights using a BT-67 Basler and the ICECAP aergeophysical suite. The flights were based out of Australia's Casey Station and France/Italy's Concordia Station in East Antarctica, as part of a focused survey of the 'Little Dome C', a region with a suspected 1.5 Ma ice core record. The Level 2 data here consist of ice thickness, bed elevation and surface and bed reflectivity data, bed specularity content data, unleveled magnetic anomaly data, unleveled gravity anomaly data, and laser altimetry. Formats are self documented text files parallel those used by ICECAP (found in the Operation IceBridge archive at the National Snow and Ice Data Center), GIMBLE (found at USAP-DC), EAGLE-ICECAPII (found at the Australian Antarctic Data Center) and David Glacier (found on Zenodo.org), with summary maps of included data in PNG format. | ["POLYGON((110 -68,113 -68,116 -68,119 -68,122 -68,125 -68,128 -68,131 -68,134 -68,137 -68,140 -68,140 -68.7,140 -69.4,140 -70.1,140 -70.8,140 -71.5,140 -72.2,140 -72.9,140 -73.6,140 -74.3,140 -75,137 -75,134 -75,131 -75,128 -75,125 -75,122 -75,119 -75,116 -75,113 -75,110 -75,110 -74.3,110 -73.6,110 -72.9,110 -72.2,110 -71.5,110 -70.8,110 -70.1,110 -69.4,110 -68.7,110 -68))"] | ["POINT(125 -71.5)"] | false | false |

The PIPERS LiDAR swath data set contains LiDAR measurements taken over the Ross Sea in Antarctica. These data also have been converted to GeoTIFF and LAS-Dataset formats, which are available with this dataset. The PIPERS project flew for two consecutive years during November of 2016 and 2017, with the IcePod. A total of three flights were flown. | ["POLYGON((-180 -71,-178.3 -71,-176.6 -71,-174.9 -71,-173.2 -71,-171.5 -71,-169.8 -71,-168.1 -71,-166.4 -71,-164.7 -71,-163 -71,-163 -71.7,-163 -72.4,-163 -73.1,-163 -73.8,-163 -74.5,-163 -75.2,-163 -75.9,-163 -76.6,-163 -77.3,-163 -78,-164.7 -78,-166.4 -78,-168.1 -78,-169.8 -78,-171.5 -78,-173.2 -78,-174.9 -78,-176.6 -78,-178.3 -78,180 -78,178.4 -78,176.8 -78,175.2 -78,173.6 -78,172 -78,170.4 -78,168.8 -78,167.2 -78,165.6 -78,164 -78,164 -77.3,164 -76.6,164 -75.9,164 -75.2,164 -74.5,164 -73.8,164 -73.1,164 -72.4,164 -71.7,164 -71,165.6 -71,167.2 -71,168.8 -71,170.4 -71,172 -71,173.6 -71,175.2 -71,176.8 -71,178.4 -71,-180 -71))"] | ["POINT(-179.5 -74.5)"] | false | false |

Continuation of Activities for the Support Office for Aerogeophysical Research (SOAR) |
The data that the Support Office for Aerogeophysical Research (SOAR) provides include various aerogeophysical measurements taken in the West Antarctic Ice Shelf (WAIS) from 1994 to 2001. The instruments used in experiments include ice-penetrating radar, laser altimetry and magnetics, and an integrated aerogeophysical platform that includes airborne gravity with carrier-phase GPS to support kinematic differential positioning. SOAR is a part of the University of Texas Institute for Geophysics (UTIG) and provides several types of data associated with various campaigns over the years. This material is based on work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grants: OPP-9120464, 9319369, 9319379, and 9911617. | ["POLYGON((-90 -68.73,-72 -68.73,-54 -68.73,-36 -68.73,-18 -68.73,0 -68.73,18 -68.73,36 -68.73,54 -68.73,72 -68.73,90 -68.73,90 -69.357,90 -69.984,90 -70.611,90 -71.238,90 -71.865,90 -72.492,90 -73.119,90 -73.746,90 -74.373,90 -75,72 -75,54 -75,36 -75,18 -75,0 -75,-18 -75,-36 -75,-54 -75,-72 -75,-90 -75,-90 -74.373,-90 -73.746,-90 -73.119,-90 -72.492,-90 -71.865,-90 -71.238,-90 -70.611,-90 -69.984,-90 -69.357,-90 -68.73))"] | ["POINT(-180 -71.865)"] | false | false |

Corridor Aerogeophysics of the Southeastern Ross Transect Zone (CASERTZ), Antarctica |
Ice surface elevation and ice thickness data are available for a portion of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. The investigators utilized a laser altimeter and ice-penetrating radar mounted to a Twin Otter aircraft to survey the ice sheet. Ice surface elevations and ice thickness data, derived from laser altimetry and radar sounding results, are available in ASCII format via ftp. These data are a result of the Corridor Aerogeophysics of the Southeastern Ross Transect Zone (CASERTZ) experiments of the 1990s. The CASERTZ geophysical surveys were aimed at understanding geological controls on ice streams of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, ultimately to help assess the potential for ice sheet collapse. Blankenship et al. (2001) used ice surface elevations and ice thicknesses (reported here) to calculate driving stresses across the ice sheet and thus to identify regions of rapid basal movement by ice streams. | ["POLYGON((-134 -80,-131 -80,-128 -80,-125 -80,-122 -80,-119 -80,-116 -80,-113 -80,-110 -80,-107 -80,-104 -80,-104 -80.4,-104 -80.8,-104 -81.2,-104 -81.6,-104 -82,-104 -82.4,-104 -82.8,-104 -83.2,-104 -83.6,-104 -84,-107 -84,-110 -84,-113 -84,-116 -84,-119 -84,-122 -84,-125 -84,-128 -84,-131 -84,-134 -84,-134 -83.6,-134 -83.2,-134 -82.8,-134 -82.4,-134 -82,-134 -81.6,-134 -81.2,-134 -80.8,-134 -80.4,-134 -80))"] | ["POINT(-119 -82)"] | false | false |
