Short summary
Presently, sea ice drift data do not provide sufficient resolution to estimate convergence and divergence fields on a spatial scaling of a few kilometres. Our goal is to exploit recent improvements and developments in computer vision by adopting a state-of-the-art feature-tracking algorithm to derive high-resolution sea ice drift. A computationally efficient algorithm has been considered, tuned and compared with other available feature-tracking algorithms.
