Short summary
Obtaining the detailed surface topography in Antarctica is essential for fieldwork planning, surface height change and mass balance estimations. A new and reliable DEM for Antarctica with a modal resolution of 500 m is presented based on the surface height measurements from ICESat-2 by using a model fitting method. The high accuracy of elevations and the possibility for annual updates make the ICESat-2 DEM an addition to the existing Antarctic DEM groups.
