Full description
The Antarctic Air Operations Planning Maps series is a SCAGI (Standing Committee on Antarctic Geographic Information) product with contributions from Australia, Belgium, Norway, the United Kingdom and the United States of America.This updated selection of maps from the Australian Antarctic Division incorporates both pre-existing datasets and new data created using Sentinel2 imagery at a scale of 1:25000. Metadata record for new digitised data: https://data.aad.gov.au/metadata/East_Antarctic_25K_topographic_data_2023
Feature types were edited or created within a topology. Line data include Coastline, Grounding line, Ice front. Polygon data include Continent, Island, Ice shelf, Tongue, Iceberg, Rock and Lakes. Grounding lines were derived from ASAID_Grounding_line_continent_Sc_dep (Rignot, E., J. Mouginot, and B. Scheuchl. 2016. MEaSUREs Antarctic Grounding Line from Differential Satellite Radar Interferometry, Version 2. Boulder, Colorado USA. NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center. https://doi.org/10.5067/IKBWW4RYHF1Q) The ASAID data was edited using ICESat2 and InSAR_GL_Antarctica_v02, Sentinel2 imagery and REMA2 DEM as a guide.
The Antarctic Iceberg Data were sourced from U.S.National Ice Centre (usicecenter.gov/Products/AntarcIcebergs) in CSV format. The CSV data used in this project is dated 3 Feb 2023.
Spot heights, contour and hillshade were derived from The Reference Elevation Model of Antarctica version 2 (REMA 2): Howat, Ian, et al., 2022, “The Reference Elevation Model of Antarctica – Mosaics, Version 2”, https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/EBW8UC Harvard Dataverse, V1, 2022

Annotation and text: Arial font are specified. As a result of there being such variation in annotation on all current editions of the series, the Geoscience Australia protocols for 1:250 000 maps have been adopted, with the exception of contour values being regular and not italic. They are regular on all previously produced maps in the series.
Natural Features: Italics.
Human-made features: non-Italics (this includes coast or land name, island names).
Hydrology features are Blue Italic text.
