A team of researchers led by the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities has released four more years of high-resolution imagery data, which has been added to eight years of previous data, to make the most detailed polar region terrain maps ever created. The maps use high-resolution satellite data to show the polar regions in detail and will provide new insights into the effects of climate change over time.
