Applications
- 5.1.1 CO₂ Emission Hotspot Mapping — Locating and quantifying point-source and diffuse CO₂ emission hotspots across national territory using satellite-borne shortwave-infrared spectrometry.
- 5.1.2 National Carbon Inventory Verification — Using satellite-derived atmospheric CO₂ and CH₄ columns to independently verify the national greenhouse gas inventories a country submits under the Paris Agreement.
- 5.1.3 Carbon Project MRV (Measurement, Reporting, Verification) — Independently verifying that forestry, soil, wetland and other nature-based carbon projects are delivering the emission reductions they claim, using multi-sensor satellite observation.
- 5.1.4 Industrial Emissions Attribution — Pinpointing which industrial facilities — steel mills, refineries, cement plants, petrochemical complexes — are responsible for specific greenhouse gas plumes, using satellite-derived spectroscopy and thermal imaging.
- 5.1.5 Aviation & Shipping Emissions Tracking — Independently measuring greenhouse gas and pollutant emissions from commercial aircraft and vessels using satellite-based atmospheric and RF surveillance, bypassing operator self-reporting.
