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
AM01b borehole site, drilled at a height of 65 metres above sea level.
Small amount of static GPS data at each of four sites in a 500 m x 500 m square strain grid.
Consult Readme file for detail of data files and formats.
Quality
See Readme file ... GPS data were recorded alongside the borehole for installation of a strain grid (30 s sampling), surface elevation, and surface motion of the ice shelf.
