Spectral signatures of sea-ice, fast-ice, shelf-ice, continental-ice and lithological units were collected. Maps on 1:2,50,000 scale for the region covering the area from 3?E to 21?E, encompassing the shelf-ice coast in the north and Muhlig-Hofmann mountains, Conrad mountains and the Wohlthat mountains towards the south have been prepared. The main drainage glaciers, the local glaciers and their associated morainic deposits have been shown. Sastrugi fields, nunataks, solid crystalline blue ice fields, their distribution, melt water channels, and grounded ice have been demarcated. Thermal mapping of Schirmacher hills has also been conducted. The objectives were to analyse remote sensed data to demarcate various morphological units, decipher ice types and boundaries, locate zones of crevasses, fractures, classify the rock types, collect ground/aerial remote sensing data in clear atmospheric conditions and to extract all the retrievable information from the satellite data and prepare maps depicting glacial morphology and geological classification.
