comment Pixel offsets tracked using Imcorr. Input files were /snufkin/projects/cci/s2raw/s2raw/21XWA/2017-07-16/Seq00/B02.tiff and /snufkin/projects/cci/s2raw/s2raw/21XWA/2017-07-31/Seq00/B02.tiff. Intrinsic S2 shift (faulty georeferencing) estimated as (x,y) = (-0.0980, 0.0134) pixels. Shift was corrected. Pixel offsets converted to m/day using scaling dx_in_meters/dt_in_days = 10.0/15.0 = 0.7.

abstract This dataset contains optical ice velocity time series and seasonal product of the Upernavik Glacier in Greenland, derived from intensity-tracking of Sentinel-2 data acquired between 2017-07-15 and 2017-08-14. It has been produced as part of the ESA Greenland Ice sheet CCI project. The data are provided on a polar stereographic grid (EPSG 3413:Latitude of true scale 70N, Reference Longitude 45E) with 50m grid spacing. The horizontal velocity is provided in true meters per day, towards EASTING (x) and NORTHING (y) direction of the grid. The product was generated by S[&]T Norway.
