Understanding the  response of glaciers to climate, including changes to their flow  regimes, is an essential step in evaluating climate change impacts on  the glacierized regions of the world. Ice-penetrating radar is one of  the most powerful and popular geophysical tools in glaciology, with  applications ranging from ice-depth sounding to mapping the internal  stratigraphy of ice sheets to inferring englacial and subglacial  conditions. Since 2008 we have been involved with glaciology research  groups to assist them in developing and testing  ice-penetrating radar  systems. Currently, we offer a portable system that has been developed  to allow for foot or skis surveys in a mountain environment.   The IceRadar software application was
specifically developed to perform acquisition, analysis, and data management tasks.  Since 2011, it runs on a ruggedized Embedded
Processing Unit (EPU)  for increased reliability and ease of use in the field. IceRadar takes  advantage of low to medium cost off-the-shelf hardware to
deliver  excellent performance and functionality at a reasonable price point. Further analysis like picking  can be done with IceRadarAnalyzer, a software application that is included in the software package.  The IceRadar integrated system can work with any impulse transmitter and antenna sets operating within the  system current capability.
