Brief description

This GIS dataset is the result of the interpolation of bathymetry from depth measurements made in Long and Tryne Fjords in the Vestfold Hills, Antarctica (see Entry: VH_bathy_99). The Topogrid command within the ArcInfo GIS software, version 8.0.2, was used to do the interpolation. Coastline and spot height (heights above sea level) data, extracted from the Australian Antarctic Data Centre's Vestfold Hills topographic GIS dataset (see Entry: vest_hills_gis), was also used as input data to optimise the interpolation close to the coastline. See related URLs for a map showing the interpolated bathymetry.
