The Global Land Ice Measurements from Space (GLIMS) program defines guidelines and rules for conducting glacier inventories3-

bedrock near the glacier and a line of stakes was hammered 
into the ice.  The positions of the stakes were surveyed very accurately and 
then scientists would return after a few months or after a year, find the 
reference mark and then repeat the survey.  This technique is still 
occasionally used, however today's scientist is likely to use a Global 
Positioning System satellite receiver to find the position of her markers.
