# Sentinel-1_Greenland_Ice_Velocity

## Product info:
The PROMICE Ice Velocity product is a timeseries of Greenland Ice Sheet velocity mosaics based on ESA Sentinel-1 SAR offset tracking. 
+ The product span the period January 2016 to present. 
+ Spatial resolution: 200 m
+ Temporal resolution: 12 days
+ Each mosaic span 2 Sentinel-1A cycles i.e. 24 days. All possible 6 and 12 day pairs using Sentinel-1A, 1B and 1C is included in the mosaic. 
+ A new mosaic is available approximately every 12 days. We aim to make it available within 10 days of the last included acquisition.

## Product data format:
+ Each mosaic is supplied as a NetCDF file.
+ Projection: Polar Stereographic projection (EPSG 3413). 
  + Latitude of true scale: 70<sup>o</sup>N.
  + Reference longitude: 45<sup>o</sup>W.

## How do I get the data? 
+ The PROMICE Ice Velocity dataset for Greenland is available at: https://dataverse.geus.dk/dataverse/Ice_velocity/ . All editions are available here.
+ I want all the data without clicking on each file! How do I do that? See info on the dataverse page.
+ For a quick hands-on tutorial: Check out the Jupyter Notebooks under tutorials for code examples of how to download data, extract a flow line, a point or an area from a data file or a time series of data files.
