Access:

Other view details

The ice radar files are stored in binary format, although a program (ReadRadar) is provided as part of the download to read the binary format and example C code to read the radar records. If you are unable to use this program, contact the technical contact to have the data converted for you. These data are stored offline. Contact the AADC for access (data will be placed on a cloud service).
