There are also options for downloading via a command line or client.
The relative positions of the 6 beams on the surface provides the capability to determine regional and local surface slope.

Fixed Table 4.2 description of “Surface_Signal_Source” to be consistent with text. Also changed the value of R snow to 0.8 from 0.6. ICESat-2 (short for Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite), slated to launch in 2018, will use lasers and a very precise detection instrument to measure the elevation of Earth’s surface. This page provides comprehensive examples on how to access and visualize various NASA HDF/HDF-EOS files using Python (pyhdf/h5py), NCL, MATLAB ®, and IDL ®.Other tools and programming languages examples can be found here. This webinar introduces the ICESat-2 mission and shows you how to explore, access and customize ICESat-2 data with the OpenAltimetry application, using NSIDC DAAC tools, and shows you how to subset, reformat and analyze the data using Python.

Le satellite est conçu pour fonctionner au moins 3 ans (avec un objectif de 5 ans) et il emporte assez d' ergols pour assurer son fonctionnement durant 7 ans. Engineers are building and testing the Advance Topographic Laser Altimeter System (ATLAS) for the ICESat-2 mission at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. and should simply be passed to ATL09. Many NSIDC data set web pages provide the ability to search and filter data with spatial and temporal contstraints using a map-based interface.
