Bedmap2 is a 1 km resolution dataset of Antarctic surface, ice thickness, and bed topography. Details about Bedmap2 can be found here:https://www.bas.ac.uk/project/bedmap-2/. This set of functions is a plugin for Antarctic Mapping Tools (Greene et al., 2017).

Version Published Release Notes
4.6.3

Updated description
4.6.2

Updated Live Scripts
4.6.1

Added live scripts
4.6.0.0

Just a few documentation updates. No changes in functionality.
Mostly documentation updates. Also, grounding line data is now included in this toolbox, which removes the Image Processing Toolbox requirement and eliminates the need to run an install script.
4.5.0.0

Plotting bedmap2('gl',...'xy') and bedmap2('coast',...'xy') are now much faster. Also fixed a bug where bedmap2_data was calling the rock mask when user requested Vostok mask.
4.4.0.0

Added bedmap2_dist function.
bedmap2_data now returns double precision.
4.3.0.0

Fixed some bugs in bedmap2_profile.
4.2.0.0

Updated contouring in the bedmap2 plotting function. Contouring now follows Matlab's contouring syntax.
4.1.0.0

Minor bug fix in bedmap2_profile.
1.13.0.0

Switch to tiff-based data, reduced dependence on Mapping Toolbox, much faster data loading and plotting, addition of bedmap2_profile.
1.12.0.0

Version 3.0.

1.11.0.0

Adapted into a plugin for the Antarctic Mapping Tools package.

1.10.0.0

v2.30: Added support for WGS84 elevations; added cubic, spline, and nearest-neighbor interpolation; changed default contour colors from blue to black, added colorbar location options.

1.9.0.0

Typo fixes in the header files. Functionality unchanged.

1.8.0.0

Removed dependency on deg2rad and rad2deg. Added examples in documentation.

1.7.0.0

v2.25: improved install error handling, changed default inset frame setting in bedmap2_zoom, documentation edits.

1.6.0.0

Fixed a bug in bedmap2_interp, expanded documentation, increased robustness of install scripts.

1.5.0.0

fixed a typo in bedmap2_interp
1.4.0.0

Added drainage basins and ASAID grounding lines.

1.3.0.0

Several added features: scalebar, scarlabel, zoom, contouring, just to name a few.

1.2.0.0

Fixed an error relation to pixel reference location. If you used a previous version, be sure to rerun bedmap2_runfirst.m using Version 1.2 or later.
1.1.0.0

v1.01: Edited Example 9 and added Example 10.
