Just as a correction, your statement 'a new version is published approximately annually' is incorrect. Twitter: Snow and Ice Data Center * Distributed Active Archive Center When Version 7 is published and we send that announcement, we’ll make sure users know that the data set isn’t updated strictly annually. We looked at the past publication schedule and the fact that the RGI group is planning to publish Version 7 this year and assumed that this cadence of publishing a new version every 1-2 years would keep up in the future. NSIDC User Services, Apr 11, 2022, 9:45 MDT But several things have changed in the meantime and updates will not follow a specific schedule. Thank you for the clarification! Indeed, we had more frequent updates in the past, maybe apart from the last one that was published back in 2017. Reply to this email to add a comment to the request.

The GLIMS Glacier Viewer was developed to provide the public with easy access to the GLIMS Glacier Database. New glacier data are continually being added to the database. The GLIMS Glacier Database provides students, educators, scientists, and the public with reliable glacier data from these analyses. The GLIMS Glacier Database was built up from data contributions from many glaciological institutions, which are managed by Regional Coordinators, who coordinate the production of glacier mapping results for their particular region. The GLIMS initiative has created a unique glacier inventory, storing information about the extent and rates of change of all the world's mountain glaciers and ice caps. GLIMS uses data collected by the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) instrument aboard the Terra satellite and the LANDSAT series of satellites, along with historical observations. Global Land Ice Measurements from Space (GLIMS) is an international initiative with the goal of repeatedly surveying the world's estimated 200,000 glaciers.
