Abstract
The Antarctic Master Directory is the largest collection of Antarctic data set description in the world, holding over 7700 dataset descriptions from 25 countries. It is hosted by the Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) of the CEOS-IDN network to minimise duplication of resources and metadata.
In addition to the AMD portal, the GCMD has an IPY portal which highlights data that have been collected over the International Polar Year.
