abstract This dataset contains a time series of ice velocities for the Hagen glacier in Greenland derived from Sentinel-1 SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) data acquired between January 2015 and March 2017. It has been produced by the ESA Greenland Ice Sheet Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project. Data files are delivered in NetCDF format at 250m grid spacing in North Polar Stereographic projection (EPSG: 3413). The horizontal velocity components are provided in true meters per day, towards the EASTING(x) and NORTHING(y) directions of the grid.
