Remote Glacier Monitoring Network in Antarctic Peninsula

This work presents the development, implementation, and applications of a remote glacier and climate monitoring network in Antarctic Peninsula. The system enables the real-time visualization of the data collected by the installed sensors through a web page. Several measuring devices were installed in the nearby area of Marambio Station, Vega Island and Matienzo Station. The devices have the ability of taking pictures, measuring air temperature and relative humidity, measuring the position using GNSS receivers and sending all data through cellular communication via 3g/4g networks available in some regions near Marambio Station or via satellite links.
