Improving the accuracy of ASTER elevation data for glacial change assessment in Antarctica [electronic resource]

Miller, Pauline Dr

Improving the accuracy of ASTER elevation data for glacial change assessment in Antarctica [electronic resource] - London RICS 2012 - RICS Research .

Looks at an automated mathematical approach which performs statistical minimisation of a poorly-controlled DEM surface with respect to a DEM of higher accuracy. This approach, known as "surface matching" offers significant potential for improving the accuracy of ASTER data and facilitating the wider application of the technique in order to quantify glacial change in a systematic manner across the Antarctic Peninsula.
