O Global Land Ice Measurements from Space (GLIMS) é uma iniciativa internacional que tem como objetivo pesquisar repetidamente os cerca de 200 mil glaciares do mundo.
O projeto busca criar um inventário global abrangente de gelo terrestre, incluindo medições de área, geometria, velocidade da superfície e elevação da linha de neve dos glaciares. Para realizar essas análises, o projeto GLIMS usa dados de satélite, principalmente do radiômetro avançado de emissão e reflexão térmica espacial (ASTER, na sigla em inglês) e do Landsat Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+), além de informações históricas derivadas de mapas e fotografias aéreas.
Cada recurso nesse conjunto de dados é um limite poligonal de uma geleira no momento da análise. Alguns IDs de geleiras têm centenas de linhas distintas ao longo do tempo.
Esse conjunto de dados é um snapshot do inventário de limites de geleiras em 7 de junho de 2023, com mais de 1.100.000 linhas.
