Layer: ASIP Daily Stage of Development (Thickness) of Ice (ID: 1)

Name: ASIP Daily Stage of Development (Thickness) of Ice

Display Field: ICECODE

Type: Feature Layer

Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon

Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P STYLE="font-size:12pt"><SPAN>Alaska Sea Ice Program(ASIP) Daily Sea Ice Analysis is derived from the Alaska Sea Ice Analysis GIS Shapefile.

The Alaska Sea Ice Analysis GIS Shapefile contains SIGRID-3 information on ice conditions that are separated into various fields including total ice concentration, ice types and their respective partial concentrations and other sea ice characteristics.

The NWS Alaska Sea Ice Program (ASIP) creates SIGRID-3 ice charts on a regular basis for Alaska waters including the Beaufort Sea, Chukchi Sea, Bering Sea, and Cook Inlet. These SIGRID-3 files have two main components: the shapefile containing the ice analysis information (ice polygons and related attributes) and the metadata describing the ice analysis data under the SIGRID-3 format. The Sea Ice Analysis represents ice conditions valid at approximately 0030 UTC but is analyzed from imagery over the preceding 24hrs. Imagery utilized includes synthetic aperture radar (SAR), polar orbiting imagery such as VIIRS, other optical or infrared sensors prioritized by recency and image quality, and application of an understanding of conditions gained from local observations and forecast weather conditions. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">Link</SPAN><SPAN> to </SPAN><A href="https://www.weather.gov:443/gis/IDP-GISRestMetadata" STYLE="text-decoration:underline;"><SPAN><SPAN>metadata</SPAN></SPAN></A></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">Questions/Concerns </SPAN><SPAN>about the service, please contact the </SPAN><A href="http://idp.gis.support@noaa.gov:80/" STYLE="text-decoration:underline;"><SPAN><SPAN>IDP-GIS </SPAN></SPAN></A><SPAN><SPAN>team.</SPAN></SPAN></P><P><SPAN><SPAN>For questions about the underlying data or other ice datasets, please email the ASIP sea ice analysts at </SPAN><A href="http://nws.ar.ice@noaa.gov:80/" STYLE="text-decoration:underline;"><SPAN>nws.ar.ice@noaa.gov</SPAN></A><SPAN>. </SPAN></SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
