SHEBA Reconnaissance Imagery

SHEBA Reconnaissance Image, 10 October 1997

The SHEBA Reconnaissance Imagery data set consists of optical band reconnaissance imagery of the SHEBA (Surface Heat Budget of the Arctic Ocean) site. A total of 57 images acquired between August 1997 and October 1998 cover a variable area on the order of 15 km by 40 km, at a resolution of about 1 m. Some but not all of the images contain the SHEBA experiment platform (the Canadian icebreaker Des Groseillers). The imagery was released via the Arctic System Science Data Coordination Center at the request of the National Science Foundation (NSF).

These images are from NSIDC's SHEBA Reconnaissance Imagery product.
