Glad to have supported @magic.bas.ac.uk in updating Antarctic coastline datasets for the @scar-antarctic.bsky.social Digital Database, which is vital for keeping maps accurate and tracking changes.

We've been using recent satellite imagery to update the @scar-antarctic.bsky.social Antarctic Digital Database coastline, in preparation for a new version of our 'Adelaide Island and Arrowsmith Peninsula' map. It's important to update this data, to track changes and portray the current conditions.

A satellite image of Skog Bay and the fronts of Murphy and Wilkinson glaciers in Graham Land, Antarctic Peninsula. There is a red line showing the previous coastline, and a blue line showing the newly updated line. The date of the image is 11th Feb. 2025.

It has been a privilege to contribute to @magic.bas.ac.uk from updating datasets, creating new metadata records to implementing machine learning & AI approaches for satellite imagery that support cutting-edge polar science.
