| description | <p>Here we present a comprehensive dataset of glacial geomorphological features covering an area of 65 000 <span class="inline-formula">km<sup>2</sup></span> in central west Poland,
located along the southern sector of the last Scandinavian Ice Sheet, within the limits of the Baltic Ice Stream Complex. The GIS dataset is based
on mapping from a 0.4 <span class="inline-formula">m</span> high-resolution digital elevation model derived from airborne light detection and ranging data. Ten landform types
have been mapped: mega-scale glacial lineations, drumlins, marginal features (moraine chains, abrupt margins, edges of ice-contact fans), ribbed
moraines, tunnel valleys, eskers, geometrical ridge networks, and hill–hole pairs. The map comprises 5461 individual landforms or landform parts,
which are available as vector layers in GeoPackage format at <a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.4570570">https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.4570570</a> (Szuman et al., 2021a). These features constitute a
valuable data source for reconstructing and modelling the last Scandinavian Ice Sheet extent and dynamics from the Middle Weichselian Scandinavian
Ice Sheet advance, 50–30 <span class="inline-formula">ka</span>, through the Last Glacial Maximum, 25–21 <span class="inline-formula">ka</span>, and Young Baltic advances, 18–15 <span class="inline-formula">ka</span>. The
presented data are particularly useful for modellers, geomorphologists, and glaciologists.</p> |
