Applications
- 11.5.1 Stack Plume Detection — Detecting, characterising and geo-locating industrial stack emissions using satellite multispectral and hyperspectral imagery to provide independent, tamper-proof pollution surveillance.
- 11.5.2 Cement Kiln Emissions — Monitoring CO2, NOx, SO2 and particulate plumes from rotary cement kilns using satellite-borne thermal infrared and hyperspectral imaging to verify regulatory compliance.
- 11.5.3 Steel Plant Heat Signatures — Using thermal infrared satellite imagery to monitor blast furnace activity, slag pour cycles and hot metal handling at steel plants for emissions and production intelligence.
- 11.5.4 Chemical Park Surveillance — Persistent multi-sensor satellite monitoring of industrial chemical complexes to detect fugitive emissions, illegal venting and toxic plume events before they become public health crises.
- 11.5.5 Compliance Reporting Verification — Using satellite-derived atmospheric and thermal data to independently verify whether industrial facilities are telling the truth in their regulatory emissions filings.
