Abstract During September 1991, April 1992 and June/July 1993, a NASA P–3 aircraft, equipped with a scanning laser altimeter, flew numerous transects of the Greenland ice sheet. The aeroplane location was measured precisely using dilTerential Global Positioning System (GPS) surveying techniques, allowing all altimetry data to be converted into measurements of ice-surface elevation relative to the Earth ellipsoid. Results from flight data indicate that icc-surface elevations can be reliably measured to an accuracy of ∼20cm (and possibly to ∼s lOcm) over baselines of more than seven hundred kilometres.
