High resolution vector polylines of the Antarctic coastline

Version:
7.7
Released:
2023-05-12T14:39:24+00:00

Coastline for Antarctica created from various mapping and remote sensing sources, consisting of the following coast types: ice coastline, rock coastline, grounding line, ice shelf and front, ice rumple, and rock against ice shelf. Covering all land and ice shelves south of 60°S. Suitable for topographic mapping and analysis. High resolution versions of ADD data are suitable for scales larger than 1:1,000,000. The largest suitable scale is changeable and dependent on the region.

Changes in v7.7 include updates Brunt Ice Shelf, ice fronts on the east side of the Antarctic Peninsula, Pine Island and Thwaites Glaciers and the ice fronts and coastline around Charcot Island. Data quality checks were also performed to ensure existing features were categorised correctly around Getz Ice Shelf.
