BedMachine Tools for MATLAB

Matlab tools for loading, interpolating, and displaying BedMachine ice sheet topography. (Also check out the equivalent Bedmap3 tools.)

Requirements

Antarctic Mapping Tools for Matlab (Greene et al., 2017) or Arctic Mapping Tools if you're analyzing Greenland.
BedMachine data for Greenland or Antarctica (Morlighem et al., 2017 & 2019).

bedmachine_data loads the gridded data.

bedmachine_interp interpolates surface elevation, thickness, bed, etc at any locations.

bedmachine plots BedMachine data as imagesc or contour.

bedmachine_profile creates a profile slice along a straight line such as a ship track or flowline.

bedmachine_3d creates a 3D map of BedMachine data.

Citing this dataset

If you use BedMachine data, please cite the Morlighem paper listed below. And if this function is useful for you, please do me a kindness and cite my Antarctic Mapping Tools paper.
