It was delineated from air photos taken by U.S. Navy Squadron VX-6 in January 1960, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) for Lieutenant Bill J. Hale, U.S. Navy, a helicopter pilot aboard {{USS|Burton Island|AGB-1|6}} who made exploratory flights to Thurston Island in February 1960.[1] Gould Knoll is a mostly ice-covered rock knoll that rises on the east margin of the glacier, at the point the glacier enters the Abbot Ice Shelf. It was named by US-ACAN after William G. Gould, a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration specialist, from the 1960s to the mid-1990s, in the archiving of Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) satellite images of the world, including those used for AVHRR image maps of the Antarctic continent.[2] See also
