This data file contains the NOAA / NESDIS / STAR / LSA Polar Ocean Data System (PODS) Arctic Sail-Height Product. The Arctic Sail-Height Product is derived from high-resolution Digital Mapping System (DMS) imagery of sea ice pressure ridges acquired during annual, low-elevation NASA Operation IceBridge airborne surveys over Arctic sea ice. IceBridge observations were acquired between March and May, 2010 - 2018. Statistics for pressure ridge sails are extracted per image, then are further processed into arithmetic averages for 25km along-track segments for each aircraft flight line. Users are asked to cite the following publication whenever these data are used: Duncan, K., Farrell, S., Connor, L., Richter-Menge, J., Hutchings, J., & Dominguez, R. (2018).
