Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for receiving, by a ground control station (GCS) having a processor with addressable memory, a plurality of point source gas concentration measurements; receiving, by the GCS, a meteorological data corresponding to each point source concentration gas measurement; determining, by the GCS, if each point source gas concentration measurement is an elevated ambient gas concentration; generating, by the GCS, a back trajectory for each elevated ambient gas concentration; storing, by the GCS, the position of each generated back trajectory in a grid; determining, by the GCS, a probability of a gas source location corresponding to the stored positions in the grid; and generating, by the GCS, an overlay showing the probability of the gas source location.
