METHOD FOR AUTOMATED GAS DETECTION

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18812715 titled 'METHOD FOR AUTOMATED GAS DETECTION

Original Abstract Submitted

Systems and methods are described for calibrating an imaging or LIDAR based gas monitoring system for efficiently scanning for gas plumes. In an example, a calibration workflow that improves the accuracy of transformations from observed points in a particular camera frame to a coordinate system that is fixed with respect to the ground, such as a set of latitude, longitude, and height values; or a spherical polar coordinate system centered at the camera where the zenith is perpendicular to the ground.
