Visualising cryospheric images in a virtual environment: present challenges and future implications / Lisa M. Ballagh, Mark A. Parsons, Ross Swick.

Title: Visualising cryospheric images in a virtual environment: present challenges and future implications / Lisa M. Ballagh, Mark A. Parsons, Ross Swick.
Author(s): Ballagh, Lisa M.
Parsons, Mark A.
Swick, Ross.
Date: 2007.
In: Polar Record. (2007.), Vol. 43(227) (2007)
Abstract: Describes outreach project of US Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) aimed at enhancing visibility of and interest in cryospheric images. Describes conversion of data into projection and image format compatible with Google Earth and integration of images into single compressed Keyhole Markup Language (KMZ) file. Users can visualise glacier photographs, permafrost type and extent, sea ice concentration and extent, and snow extent superimposed on the Earth. Describes links to other data and discusses ways of improving processing and functionality of polar data in Google Earth.
