The resulting database contains records of 320 493 iceberg positions from 26 601 individual observations. Of these, 259 479 icebergs have been classified by size into five different length categories: 10-50, 50-200, 200-500, 500-1000 and >1000 m. The database also includes 8061 additional iceberg observations collected by the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions ships from 1984 (AAD), operating in the 50-150° E longitude sector. Some of these have been classified by slightly different size categories.
