Calibrated estimates of mean and maximum ice thickness for glaciers of the third Austrian Glacier Inventory (GI3)

DOI

A comprehensive data set of in-situ ice thickness measurements from 58 glaciers in the Austrian Alps and observed glacier geometries of the third Austrian Glacier Inventory (GI3) have been used to calibrate an established ice thickness model and to calculate an improved ice thickness data set for the Austrian Alps. Glacier name, glacier ID, year of date, glacier area, mean and maximum ice thickness are presented in a table and GIS shapefile. The projected coordinate system is EPSG 31287 - MGI / Austria Lambert.
