Coastline for Antarctica created from various mapping and remote sensing sources. Covering all land and ice shelves south of 60°S. Suitable for topographic mapping and analysis. Data compiled, managed and distributed by the Mapping and Geographic Information Centre and the UK Polar Data Centre, British Antarctic Survey on behalf of the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research.
Antarctic coastline south of 60°S, consisting of ice coastline, rock coastline, grounding line, ice shelf and front, ice rumple, and 'rock against ice shelf' line features.

Dataset compiled from a variety of Antarctic map and satellite image sources. The dataset was created using ArcGIS and QGIS GIS software programmes and has been checked for basic topography and geometry checks, but does not contain strict topology. Quality varies across the dataset and certain areas where high resolution source data were available are suitable for large scale maps whereas other areas are only suitable for smaller scales. Each line has attributes detailing the source which can give the user further indications of its suitability for specific uses. Attributes also give information including 'surface' (e.g. grounding line, ice coastline, ice shelf front) and revision date. Compiled from sources ranging in time from 1990s-2020 - individual lines contain exact source dates.
