The inventory series of ice marginal lakes in Greenland has been produced as part of the European Space Agency (ESA) Living Planet Fellowship project "Examining GReenland’s Ice Marginal Lakes under a changing climate (GrIML)", which is a follow-on effort to the 2017 inventory of ice marginal lakes created under the European Space Agency (ESA) Climate Change Initiative (CCI) in Option 6 of the Glaciers_cci project (4000109873/14/I-NB). | ||

Upkeep and continuation of the inventory series is supported by [PROMICE](https://promice.org], funded by the [Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS)](https://www.geus.dk/) and the Danish Ministry of Climate, Energy and Utilities under the Danish Cooperation for Environment in the Arctic (DANCEA), conducted in collaboration with DTU Space (Technical University of Denmark) and Asiaq Greenland Survey. | ||

# Dataset tutorials | ||
|
||
The GrIML package is used for the production of the Greenland ice marginal lake inventory series, which is freely available through the [GEUS Dataverse](https://doi.org/10.22008/FK2/MBKW9N). This dataset is a series of annual inventories, mapping the extent and presence of lakes across Greenland that share a margin with the Greenland Ice Sheet and/or the surrounding ice caps and periphery glaciers. | ||
|
||
Here, we will look at how to load and handle the dataset, and provide details on its contents. | ||
|
||
## Dataset contents | ||
|
||
This ice marginal lake dataset is a series of annual inventories, mapping the extent and presence of lakes across Greenland that share a margin with the Greenland Ice Sheet and/or the surrounding ice caps and periphery glaciers. The annual inventories provide a comprehensive record of all identified ice marginal lakes, which have been detected using three independent remote sensing techniques: | ||
|
||
- DEM sink detection using the ArcticDEM (mosaic version 3) | ||
- SAR backscatter classification from Sentinel-1 imagery | ||
- Multi-spectral indices classification from Sentinel-2 imagery | ||
|
||
All data were compiled and filtered in a semi-automated approach, using a modified version of the [MEaSUREs GIMP ice mask](https://nsidc.org/data/NSIDC-0714/versions/1) to clip the dataset to within 1 km of the ice margin. Each detected lake was then verified manually. The methodology is open-source and provided in the associated [Github repository](https://github.com/GEUS-Glaciology-and-Climate/GrIML) for full reproducibility. | ||
|
||
The inventory series was created to better understand the impact of ice marginal lake change on the future sea level budget and the terrestrial and marine landscapes of Greenland, such as its ecosystems and human activities. The dataset is a complete inventory series of Greenland, with no absent data. | ||
|
||
### Data format | ||
|
||
The detected lakes are presented as polygon vector features in shapefile format (.shp), with coordinates provided in the WGS NSIDC Sea Ice Polar Stereographic North (EPSG:3413) projected coordinate system. | ||
|
||
### Metadata | ||
|
||
Each inventory in the inventory series contains the following metadata information: | ||
|
||
| Variable name | Description | Format | | ||
|---------------------|---------------------|---------| | ||
| `row_id` | Index identifying number for each polygon | Integer | | ||
| `lake_id` | Identifying number for each unique lake | Integer | | ||
| `lake_name`| Lake placename, as defined by the [Oqaasileriffik (Language Secretariat of Greenland)](https://oqaasileriffik.gl) placename database which is distributed with [QGreenland](https://qgreenland.org/) | String | | ||

| `num_src` | Number of sources that successfully classified the lake (`1`, `2`, `3`) | String | | ||
| `certainty` | Certainty of classification, which is calculated from `all_src` as a score between `0` and `1` | Float | - | | ||
| `start_date` | Start date for classification image filtering | String | | ||
| `end_date` | End date for classification image filtering | String | | ||
| `verified` | Flag to denote if the lake has been manually verified (`Yes`, `No`) | String | | ||
| `verif_by` | Author of verification | String | | ||
| `edited` | Flag to denote if polygon has been manually edited (`Yes`, `No`) | String | | ||
| `edited_by` | Author of manual editing | String | | ||
