Digital Elevation Model of Holme Bay, Antarctica

The input data was sourced from the following datasets which are listed with their dataset number: Framnes Mountains 1:25000 Topographic GIS Dataset (dataset 55) Holme Bay 1:25000 GIS Dataset (dataset 57) Holme Bay 1:10000 Gibbney Island Mapping (dataset 90) Holme Bay 1:10000 Rookery Islands Mapping (dataset 91) Holme Bay 1:10000 Wigg Island Mapping (dataset 96) Holme Bay 1:5000 Bechervaise and Welch Islands Mapping (dataset 97) Mapping around the Framnes Mountains from Spot Imagery at 10 metre pixel resolution (dataset 98) Robinson Group, east of Mawson, mapping from Spot satellite imagery at 20 metre pixel resolution (dataset 99) Framnes Mountains contours smoothed and edited (dataset 187).

The spatial coverages and estimated planimetric and vertical accuracies of datasets 57, 90, 91, 96, 97 and 99 are shown in a map linked to this metadata record. These datasets were the source data for the islands and a strip of the continent coast which was the area of interest when the DEM was created. The source data for almost all of the remaining land area, which is inland from a coastal strip, was contours from dataset 187 with an estimated planimetric accuracy of 200 metres and estimated vertical accuracy of 100 metres.
