Watch the ice retreat.
FlyPix AI is the no-code glacier monitoring software that maps glacier extent, terminus retreat, snow and ice cover, and glacial lakes across optical and SAR satellite imagery — building multi-year time series over thousands of square kilometres of remote terrain and saving up to 99.7% of manual analysis time.
Delineating one ice front by hand takes 997 seconds.
FlyPix AI takes 3.
Glaciers shift slowly across vast, cloud-prone, hard-to-reach terrain, and a single basin can hold dozens of ice fronts and lakes. Digitising margins scene by scene does not scale across a mountain range or a multi-year record. FlyPix AI delineates every margin automatically, so monitoring keeps pace with each new overpass.
Researchers trace glacier margins and lake shorelines by hand across dated scenes. Work is slow, inconsistent between operators, and out of date long before the next field season.
Up to 99.7% time saved. Consistent, georeferenced extent and terminus polygons with dates you can track across years and export straight into your GIS and research workflow.
AI cryosphere change detection for any basin, without the code.
Glacier monitoring software is a tool that analyses repeat imagery of ice to measure glacier extent, terminus position, snow and ice cover, and change over time. FlyPix AI is a no-code platform that uses artificial intelligence to delineate ice margins, track terminus retreat, map glacial lakes, and estimate surface velocity across optical and SAR satellite imagery. You define your basin, and the engine compares captures across dates and seasons, outlines every change, and builds multi-year time series — turning slow manual digitising into minutes of decision-ready, research-ready insight.
Everything you need to monitor glacier change
One platform to map, measure, and track ice across the basins you study — from a single tongue to an entire mountain range.
Extent & terminus tracking
Compare dated captures to delineate glacier margins and measure terminus advance or retreat automatically, with no manual digitising.
Snow & ice cover mapping
Classify snow, bare ice, debris cover, and rock to map the cryosphere and track seasonal snowline change at scale.
Glacial lake & GLOF hazard
Detect and measure proglacial and supraglacial lakes over time to flag growth and glacial lake outburst flood risk early.
Surface velocity & flow
Estimate ice flow direction and speed by tracking surface features between repeat captures across the season.
See through cloud
Use cloud- and night-penetrating SAR to keep monitoring high, persistently cloudy terrain where optical sensors go blind.
Multi-year time series
Export dated extent, terminus, and area measurements as time series for mass-change proxies and climate analysis.
From raw imagery to glacier time series in four steps
A no-code workflow built so glaciologists, climate scientists, and hazard teams — not just data scientists — can run production-grade ice monitoring.
Set your basin
Define the glacier, catchment, or mountain range you want to watch and connect optical or SAR captures across dates.
Define what to map
Label a few examples of clean ice, debris cover, snow, and glacial lakes, or use the built-in cryosphere model.
Let the AI compare
FlyPix delineates margins, measures terminus and area, detects lakes, and tracks change across every overpass.
Track & export
Review change on interactive maps, build multi-year time series, and export polygons and measurements to your GIS.
Monitor ice through any conditions
High mountains and polar margins are clouded over for much of the year. FlyPix AI ingests the full range of remote-sensing data — separate snow, ice, and debris with multispectral bands, see ice fronts through cloud and polar darkness with SAR, and measure surface elevation with LiDAR — all in one workspace, so no overpass goes to waste.

Why teams choose FlyPix AI
The platform removes the bottlenecks that slow glacier monitoring: manual margin digitising, specialist headcount, persistent cloud, and tooling that cannot keep pace with new captures.
Change in seconds
Delineate ice margins and measure terminus retreat across a full basin in seconds instead of hours of manual digitising — and repeat it on every overpass.
A true no-code platform
Glaciologists and hazard teams run AI change detection on their own imagery — no programming, no data-science team, no vendor queue.
All-weather monitoring
Combine optical and SAR so cloud and polar darkness never create a blind spot over high, remote terrain.
Built for the long record
Consistent, georeferenced measurements across dates and years so multi-year glacier trends stay comparable and defensible.
