ESA has acquired satellite data of ice sheets in Antarctica and Greenland for over thirty years, contributing to long-term studies of how these regions are changing.

These observations include data from the ERS, Envisat, CryoSat, and Copernicus Sentinel-3 missions, creating a record from 1991 to the present.
