Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV); a trace gas sensor disposed on the UAV, where the gas sensor is configured to measure a gas point concentration; a wind sensor, where the wind sensor is configured to determine a discrete wind vector corresponding to the gas point concentration measurement; and where the discrete wind vector and gas point concentration measurement are acquired substantially concurrently and co-locally.

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.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods including an aerial vehicle having a global positioning system (GPS) and at least one trace-gas sensor configured to generate gas data; and a processor having addressable memory, the processor configured to: determine a flight envelope based on a received spatial location, a received spatial location of the one or more potential gas sources, a received desired level of confidence, and a received wind data; determine a flight path for the aerial vehicle, where the flight path covers a portion of the determined flight envelope; and determine based on a received gas data whether a gas leak is present in the received spatial location to the received desired level of confidence.
