The GHGSat Inc. data evaluation is now complete, and the data acquired during the evaluation are available via the SmallSat Data Explorer tool (SDX). The completed GHGSat Evaluation Report and the Quality Assessment Summary will be posted here when available for release.

GHGSat specializes in the high-resolution remote sensing of greenhouse gases from space. The GHGSat methane concentration and emissions data products were evaluated under the CSDA program. GHGSat currently has a constellation of satellites in orbit that are capable of measuring methane emissions from point sources as small as landfills and individual oil and gas wells.
