ArcticDEM add-on data

The Polar Geospatial Center provides a custom Greenland 32-meter resolution ArcticDEM for users of QGreenland.

Two download packages are provided for the v4.1 ArcitcDEM:

  • arcticdem_v4.1_32m_greenland_dem_only.zip: A ~4.1GB package containing only the 32-m resolution DEM.

  • arcticdem_v4.1_32m_greenland_dem_full.zip: A ~9.5GB package containing the 32-m resolution DEM and ancillary datasets (e.g., a “count” dataset giving the number of contributing DEMs for each pixel).

Download one of these add-on packages and place it in a suitable location in your filesystem. Unzip the package and then follow the directions in the README.txt file included.
