Featured Aeolian Landforms Observation Method: ATLAS
NASA's Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System (ATLAS) is a laser altimeter aboard the Ice, Cloud, and Land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) platform. While the primary intent of ATLAS is to measure cryospheric elevation, the instrument is able to measure elevation in temperate regions as well.
This Satellite Needs Working Group solution provides reduced-latency versions of existing Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System (ATLAS) products.
During this webinar we will introduce the ICESat-2 mission and show you how to explore, access and customize ICESat-2 data with the advanced discovery and visualization OpenAltimetry application, directly filter and access ICESat-2 data from an NSIDC DAAC data set page and subset, reformat and analyze ICESat-2 data using Python-based resources.
Data from NASA’s ICESat-2 mission provide incredibly accurate measurements of Earth elevation change—and much more.
