GPR_MACCA_ANARE53
All scientific data collected by the Australian Antarctic program (AAp) are eventually described in the Catalogue of Australian Antarctic and Subantarctic Metadata (CAASM). CAASM can be used to search through AAp data descriptions, and it also provides links to access publicly available datasets, which can either be immediately downloaded or obtained from the Australian Antarctic Data Centre (AADC).

Description
GPR data collected at Macquarie Island at three locations, at the station area, above the abandoned tip and around the ionosonde hut. The instrument used was Ramac GPR with 250 MHz antennas. The station data are positioned, the other two data sets are not, only description of location is available. Data are in .rad and .rd3 format.
Quality
Data are very noisy due to highly conductive ground.
