We present a set of data of interpreted ice thickness and ice surface elevation of Artesonraju glacier. The ice thickness was obtained by means of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) which was measured by Instituto Nacional de Investigación en Glaciares y Ecosistemas de Montaña (INAIGEM) and Autoridad Nacional de Agua (ANA). The years of ice thickness records include 2013, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2018, and 2020. On the other hand, the surface elevation points were obtained by means of automated total stations and mass balance stakes, integrally measured by ANA. The years of measurements are 2012, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020. The results from GPR data show a maximum depth of 235±18 m and a decreasing mean depth of ranging from 134±18 m in 2013 to 110±18 m in 2020. Additionally, we estimate a mean ice thickness change rate of 4.2±3.2 m yr-1 between 2012 and 2020 with GPR data alone, which is in agreement with the elevation change in the same period. The latter was estimated with the more accurate surface elevation data, yielding a change rate of -3.2±0.2 m yr-1, and hence, confirming a negative glacier mass balance. The datasets can be valuable for further analysis when combined with other data types, and as input for glacier dynamics modeling, ice volume estimations, and GLOF risk assessment.
