This looks at some of the work we did at WAIS. The photos were taken from Dec 29 - Jan 8. PRISM (Polar Radar for Ice Sheet Measurements) is a group that has developed a variety of radars for studying the ice sheet and the bedrock under the ice sheet. They have also developed an autonomous rover (robot) that is under GPS (global positioning system) control that can carry the radars and move them along a specific path without a driver. We went to WAIS (West Antarctic Ice Sheet) Divide camp to test these radars and the rover.
