Algorithm for extracting ICESat-2 crossover points. The right half of the diagram displays all ICESat-2 points within a region. The different colored points represent ICESat-2 points on different tracks. We assign a specific serial number to each point (point 1 to point n). The left half of the diagram shows the discriminatory and cyclical process for identifying the crossover points. n points require n-1 cycles. For Cycle 1, we calculate the distance between the first point and each of the remaining points to determine the crossover points.
