Spatial ice thickness distribution and glacier bed elevation 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 all glaciers in the Austrian Alps. The ice thickness distribution and the glacier bed elevation are presented with a grid spacing of 10 m. The projected coordinate system is EPSG 31287 - MGI / Austria Lambert.
