Abstract
These datasets include detailed digitized shapefiles of surface fractures (polylines) and internal mélange zones (polygons) within the pinning-point shear zone of the Thwaites Eastern Ice Shelf. They were created using high-resolution (15-meter) panchromatic bands from Landsat 7, 8, and 9, with data from 2002 to 2022. Monthly digitization from January 2020 to July 2022 was also performed using preprocessed Sentinel-1 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images. Each feature includes attributes such as length and orientation, recorded in the EPSG:3031 coordinate reference system, and detailed in the attribute table. Additional funding was received from NE/S006419/1
