Abstract

The theory and technique of spaceborne laser altimeter are studied.On this basis,using ICESAT altimeter data to determine the Antarctic ice sheet elevation model,ICESAT satellite laser altimetry data were compared with GPS data measured Antarctic expedition.ICESAT data can be used to determine the Antarctic ice sheet elevation model.
