Ground Penetrating Radar ORG FARRO (GPR) and Global Positioning System (GPS) techniques were employed in snow accumulation studies during the Italian leg of the International Trans-Antarctic Scientific Expedition (ITASE).The acquired data were useful both for glaciological and climatological studies.This paper presents some results obtained by GPR and GPS data integration employed to determine accumulation/ablation processes along the profile of the traverse that show how the snow-sublayer thickness can vary quickly in just a few kilometres.

Some examples of data integration employed in detection and characterisation of buried screenprotector crevasses are also presented.
