IceBridge Highlights FY11• Work centered on 4 focus areas:
– FastTrack ingest (for quick availability to users)– ECS ingest (for robust preservation and to enable
enhanced data services via granule-level metadata)
– Tools & services– Value-added products
• Presentations and outreach
3 PoDAG XXX: IceBridgeOctober 12, 2011
FastTrack Ingest• Published 71 product/campaign
datasets to ftp site, with as-available documentation (34 distinct datasets)
• Brokered 1 product/campaign dataset
• Created and published first 5 complete guide documents
• Developed dataset versioning and data retention policies for IceBridge data, analogous to policies for other DAAC data
• Encouraging teams to adopt common standard formats and more consistent deliveries

ECS Ingest• First four products populated
in ECS test mode• Ongoing work to create
algorithms to determine spatial extents of data
• Process is challenging due to non-standard, changing, and inconsistent data and metadata formats
• Now negotiating agreements with providers to stabilize data deliveries and prevent ongoing code maintenance
• Starting to plan development of an ingest protocol analogous to the EOSDIS satellite providers’ SIPS protocol
6 PoDAG XXX: IceBridgeOctober 12, 2011
Tools & Services: Portal• Portal storyboards created with input from SWG• First release of portal June 13
– Map-based visualization of Greenland flight tracks; download/display of all available flight reports
• Next priority development: access to data on ftp site
• External search and aggregation services being developed by Libre team and exposed through portal
7 PoDAG XXX: IceBridgeOctober 12, 2011
Tools & Services• Developing more robust online
form for ingest of flight reports (for preservation) and associated metadata (to enable portal functionality)
• Tools available on web site– NSIDC- and provider-
created– Data readers and utilities
• Held interchange meeting with ASF technical staff Aug 17-18 to discuss common activities and possible joint development; collaborative work has not yet begun
8 PoDAG XXX: IceBridgeOctober 12, 2011
Value-Added Products• Prototype along-track product created and distributed to SWG Apr
14 (two flightlines from Antarctica ‘09 campaign)• Created wiki for NSIDC/IceBridge project/ Science Team/Science
Working Group to discuss and evaluate VAPs and Science Team-developed products
• Held WebEx review of along-track product Aug 30 with SWG and ST
Ice Sheet Along-Track Product • Creating 14 additional ATP flightlines for final evaluation of beta-version functions
• Plan to put ATP into production Winter ’11
9 PoDAG XXX: IceBridgeOctober 12, 2011
Presentations and Outreach
• Conducted Science Working Group meetings– October 13 in-person; Jun 1, Aug 30 WebEx
telecons– Next meeting (tentative) week of Jan 30
• Presentations at Science Team meetings– January 19-21 (@GSFC); June 14-16 (@UC Irvine)
• Outreach at conferences– Fall AGU (poster); Spring EGU (presentation);
brochure• Outreach to CryoSat-2 team
– CryoSat-2 Validation Workshop Feb 1-3; EGU; telecon with CryoSat-2 technical management on possible collaborations (nothing yet begun)
10 PoDAG XXX: IceBridgeOctober 12, 2011
• Data Management:– Continued FastTrack ingest of IB and pre-IB datasets, along with flight geometries
and ancillary data– Writing guide documents– Creating provider agreements to stabilize data deliveries– ECS engineering leading to operational ingest– Production-quality ingest processes
• Tools & Services:– Continuing incremental development of the IceBridge portal as guided by the
SWG. High priority tasks: access to data on ftp site (Jan 25 ‘12), visualization of Antarctic map and flightlines, access to along-track value-added products, access through ECHO to ECS-archived data
• Value-Added Products:– Production-mode generation of along-track products (Winter ‘11/’12)– Development of bedmap and other gridded products in consultation with
IceBridge Science Team and Project Office• Develop plans for implementation of “bridge” components:
– ICESat, ICESat-2, CryoSat-2
