Dataset

Statement

Methodology:

Compiled using data from eleven national mapping agencies at data scales no larger than 1:200,000/1:250:000. Dataset was originally published in tiled Coverage format, using Esri ArcInfo. Data has now been merged to a single dataset using ArcMap v10.8 and exported to shapefile and geopackage formats. Each line has attributes detailing the date ('CST00DAT'), and sources ('CST00SHT' and 'CST00SRC'). Data sources are dated between 1956-1997.

For full details on the dataset, including bibliography of sources, please refer to the ADD Manual v3.0: https://nora.nerc.ac.uk/id/eprint/20362/"

Data attributes are:

- CST00TYP - Coastline type (denoted by code, outlined below)

- CST00DAT - Datestamp of source data

- CST00INF - Text field for notes and comments

- CST00SHT - Reference for map sheet of digitised source data

- CST00EDT - Data editor

- CST00SRC - Source of data

- CST00REV - Revision date of data

Coast types are defined using the `CST00TYP` attribute, where:

- 22010 - ice coastline (definite),

- 22011 - rock coastline (definite),

- 22012 - grounding line (definite),

- 22013 - rock against ice shelf (definite),

- 22020 - ice wall (approximate),

- 22021 - rock coastline (approximate),

- 22022 - grounding line (approximate),

- 22023 - rock against ice shelf (approximate),

- 22030 - iceberg tongue

- 22040 - floating glacier tongue

- 22050 - ice shelf and front

- 22090 - ice rumples (distinct)

- 22100 - ice rumples (indistinct)

Data quality:

Scale0 is the highest resolution that was produced.

Due to the very wide and legacy sources of the data for this compilation, the dataset attributes are inconsistent in format and incomplete. The data are published as they stood at the time of their first publication in 2000.
