- Abstract
The Antarctica ice sheet thickness is one of the important information to know the dynamics of changes in the Earth's environment. Geospatial data of the ice sheet surface, land surface and underwater topography, and vertical deformation can be used for ice sheet thickness measurement and calculation. They can be extracted from the latest DTM. The latest DTM is one of the methods and products to extract up-to-date and detailed topography based on the dynamics of the vertical deformation period. This study aims to measure the Antarctica ice sheet thickness based on land surface dynamics and underwater topography from the latest DTM extraction. The vertical accuracy of the DTM, DSM, and vertical deformation uses a 95 % (1.96σ) confidence level. The ice thickness is divided into three types of ice layers according to the reference field: ice thickness above land, ice thickness (above the sea), and ice thickness (underwater). Ice thickness above land has a volume (3,700,299.5 km³), an area (6,767,772 km²), and a total length perimeter (114,569 km). Ice thickness (above the sea) has a volume (28,103,427.8 km³), an area (13,438,789 km²), and a total perimeter length (27,199 km). Ice thickness (underwater) has a volume (1,793,778.6 km³), an area (3,223,036 km²), and a total length perimeter (46,556 km). Antarctica's ice sheet thickness results can be used for various thematic applications of the dynamics of the Earth's environment.
