What's New in SeaIce

1.1.0

April 7, 2017

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon. Import GPX files - Taking dedicated GPS gear on your trip, but still want to know about the ice around you? Now you can import the GPX files that are exported from most GPS devices (online tools can be used to convert other formats into GPX), and process them against our database! Just open the GPX on the device and select SeaIce from the 'Open In' menu, head to 'Track Your Route' and tap 'Import GPX Track'. Once you've given it a name, you can view it just like any other route! Bug fixes - background location tracking

Gentleman of Leisure

The other day, I was coasting through the ice fields of North Greenland, and came across a perilous sheet of icy danger. Me and my soul brothers wondered if there was some form of application that would assist our knowledge of the safe passage across the slippery death trap. Fortunately, we discovered this relatively slim lined, very well constructed app which gave us accurate #seaice data. It was our vital in our safe traversal of the terrain. Magnificent. 5 out of 5 stars. Peace out Brotendo ✌🏾

FAQ

What is SeaIce?

SeaIce is an application developed at the University of Leeds that allows users to visualize and interact with sea ice thickness and extent data from the European Space Agency's CryoSat Mission. It also enables users to track their routes in the Arctic and learn about polar research.

What kind of data does SeaIce provide?

SeaIce provides access to CryoSat's historic record of Arctic ice extent and thickness from 2010 to the present day, presented through detailed maps and charts optimized for mobile devices.

Can SeaIce be used offline?

While the app allows you to record your route in real-time using GPS, processing this data with satellite ice information requires a stable internet connection. Learning resources within the app may also require connectivity.

How does SeaIce help researchers?

Users can optionally share their recorded Arctic routes with the developers. This data helps researchers identify popular areas and understand their impact on the surrounding Arctic environment.

What educational content is available in SeaIce?

The 'Learn More' section provides information about the technology and science behind calculating Arctic sea ice extent and thickness, as well as details on cutting-edge research. It includes links to resources from CPOM, ESA, and their partners.

Does SeaIce have ads?

No, SeaIce does not contain advertisements. It is a free application developed by the University of Leeds.

What devices is SeaIce compatible with?

SeaIce is currently supported on iPhone and iPod devices. It is rated for ages 4 and up.
