Summary
Abstract: The IceBridge ATM L1B Qfit Elevation and Return Strength (ILATM1B) data set contains Northern and Southern Hemisphere surface elevation measurements taken from the Airborne Topographic Mapper (ATM). The ATM measures a sequence of points scanned in a swath along the aircraft flight track. Each ATM point has a surface elevation and a geographic location. ATM data is generally distributed in the ... View entire text
