Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods including: an optical gas imaging (OGI) camera; a processor in communication with the OGI camera, the processor configured to: capture at least two images of a scene with the camera; compare the captured at least two images to determine at least one of: a motion associated with a movement of the camera and a motion associated with a movement of a gas plume; apply a color to each pixel of the captured images based on at least one of: a direction of movement and a velocity of movement between the at least two captured images; subtract pixels from the colored pixels associated with the movement of the camera; and generate an image of an output of a gas plume based on the subtracted pixels and the applied color pixels.

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 including receiving, by a processor having addressable memory, a spatial location of one or more known assets; determining, by the processor, one or more clusters based on the received spatial location of the one or more known assets; determining, by the processor, a bound for each asset of the one or more known assets in each cluster; and determining, by the processor, a flight plan for an aerial vehicle for each cluster, where the flight plan surveys each asset in each cluster.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods including a modified Herriot cell comprising: a laser configured to generate a single beam; a partially transmissive region (PTR) disposed in at least one of: a first mirror and a second mirror, where a first portion of the single beam is received through the PTR, and wherein a second portion of the single beam is reflected by the PTR; a first detector disposed proximate the PTR, wherein the first detector receives the first portion of the beam, and where the first portion of the beam has traveled a first path length from the laser to the first detector; and a second detector disposed proximate the exit hole, where the second detector receives the second portion of the beam, and wherein the second portion of the beam has traveled a second path length from the laser to the second detector.
