The British Antarctic Survey (BAS) has, since its inception, collected geophysical measurements as part of its geological exploration activities. These georeferenced data are held in a variety of digital archives and include the following types.

Marine cruise data: Gravity, magnetic, bathymetric and seismic data have been collected from around the Antarctic Peninsula and Scotia Arc since the mid 1960s. These data are used for a range of science programs and international collaborations.

Airborne data: BAS has acquired considerable gravity, magnetic and radar data sets covering the Antarctic Peninsula, Ronne Ice Shelf, Wilkes Land, Pine Island Bay and adjacent areas. These data are changing our knowledge of continental and ice sheet dynamics.

This presentation will give an overview of the geophysical data held at BAS and show how they are organised and how we are making them more accessible to the scientific community.
