Intelligent Emissions Monitoring
We help industry, municipalities, and researchers overcome emission problems to protect the environment and the people in it.
Air Detection and Ranging (Airdar)
Airdar draws inspiration from the polar bear, whose nose acts like a compass both above and below the ice. Polar bears can detect a seal several kilometres away and can even smell their prey’s breath!

Airdar provides intelligent emissions monitoring of methane and other compounds
Airdar Features
-
Continuous Monitoring
Identify intermittent sources and large emission events that other technologies miss.
-
Accurate Quantification
Estimate emission rates of individual sources and entire sites with up to 90% accuracy.
-
Remotely Controlled
Operate without personnel on-site. No source is too high or too dangerous to monitor.
-
Unbiased Source Location
Track fugitive emissions back to their sources without the need to aim a monitoring instrument directly at an assumed source location.
-
Sitewide Coverage
Monitor all facility components simultaneously to locate the exact air vent, pipe, tank or other source that is emitting.
-
Offsite Source Location
Detect off-site emission sources that cause problems and confusion on-site. Large sources have been located at distances as great as 22 km away.
