GAPMAP | PM2.5 &PM10
The GAPMAP mission, validated by its In-Orbit Demonstrator in April 2023, focuses on aerosol monitoring, providing essential data for air quality and climate studies. This payload measures aerosol concentration and properties, offering insights into their role in atmospheric processes and interactions with other pollutants. GAPMAP’s success demonstrated the capability of our satellite platform to deliver reliable, continuous aerosol observations, supporting models for pollution trends, health impacts, and climate dynamics. The mission’s achievements laid the groundwork for developing advanced payloads like G3 and CLIMATE, enabling broader environmental monitoring and addressing critical atmospheric challenges.
G3 | CO2 & Methane
The G3 prototype was developed to address the need for real-time gas monitoring from space. Completed in 2024, it is a spectrometer designed to measure emissions of gases like CO2 and methane, which impact air quality and climate. G3’s high-resolution data supports accurate emission quantification and source identification, aiding air quality models and mitigation strategies. This system integrates with our satellite platform to provide consistent, global-scale gas monitoring. By focusing on gas-specific challenges, G3 complements aerosol monitoring systems like GAPMAP, contributing to a more complete understanding of atmospheric composition and its environmental impacts.
