BedMachine Antarctica

ID: bedmachine-antarctica

BedMachine Antarctica is a research project that aims to create a comprehensive and detailed map of the bedrock topography beneath the Antarctic ice sheet. Utilizing a combination of radar, sonar, and satellite data, the project provides insights into the geological features that lie beneath the thick ice cover. The data generated by BedMachine is crucial for understanding ice dynamics, predicting ice sheet stability, and assessing how changes in ice mass may contribute to global sea level rise.
