This is the first inventory of glacial lakes of Bhutan Himalaya. The data is prepared using topographic maps and satellite images of Bhutan.

This is the inventory of glacial lakes in the Nepal Himalaya. The inventory is prepared using Landsat satellite images of 2005/2006 and gives the distribution of glacial lakes at the sub-basin level. It also contains information about three potentially dangerous lakes based on their field investigation, along with the prioritization of critical lakes.

This is the first inventory of glacial lakes of Nepal Himalaya. The data is prepared using topographic maps, aerial photographs and satellite images.

The comprehensive baseline information on the glacial lakes of the Hindu Kush Himalaya was generated semi-automatically using more than 200 Landsat 5 TM and Landsat 7 ETM+ images of 2005 ± 2 years with minimum cloud and snow coverage. The glacial lakes were mapped by using band ratio threshold condition method and some manual intervention. The attribute data were assigned using 90m resolution SRTM DEM.
