Comment (by george.gayno@…):

 Some background on the use of RAMP data from Bob Grumbine:

 {{{
 The Antarctic topography wasn't well-represented in the GTOPO30 that was
 available
 in 2006.  I would hope they've updated it.  RAMP was the Radarsat
 Antarctic
 Mapping Project.  It produced dedicated surface topography for the
 Antarctic,
 including providing heights for the ice shelves (don't know about GTOPO30,
 but
 many data sets give zero elevation for them, which is incorrect, if
 understandable).
 }}}
