MethaneSAT will launch next month, one of several satellites that are being deployed to monitor methane emissions across the globe to pinpoint major sources of the invisible but potent greenhouse gas. It is a partnership led by EDF, the New Zealand Space Agency, Harvard University and others. Data from the satellite will be available later this year, and Google Cloud will provide the computing capabilities to process the information.

Google announced a partnership with the Environmental Defense Fund to map methane emissions and oil and gas infrastructure from space.

Google also said it will create a map of oil and gas infrastructure, using artificial intelligence to identify components like oil tanks. MethaneSATs data on emissions will then be overlayed with the Google map to assist in understanding which types of oil and gas equipment tend to leak most.

Better data and assessment metrics—and improved researcher involvement in communities—are needed to understand and redress inequitable vulnerabilities to and recoveries from flooding.

Google collaborates with EDF using innovative satellite MethaneSAT and AI technology to monitor methane emissions and support efforts to mitigate leaks, improving global climate efforts.
