The measurements of the ice sheet topography will be made near-simultaneously (within 8-16 days) from both GPS and laser systems (and possibly also from an aircraft laser altimeter) and used to assess the error budgets of the GLAS satellite. The overall goal of the project is to determine the seasonal and interannual variation in surface elevation of the Antarctic ice sheet. This information is essential for predicting future changes in ice volume and sea-level.
