???????????????????? ?????? ?????????? ?????????? ?????????????????? ???????????? ?????????????? ?????????????????? ???????????? ???????? ???? ?????? ?????????? ???????????? ?????????? ??After years of research, our team of scientists that spun out of the Los Alamos National Laboratory has managed to build the first global and automated high resolution methane emissions detection system. ?????? ???????????????? ???? ?????????????? ?????????????????? In a study published today in Nature Communications, our Geolabe research team, out of Los Alamos, New Mexico, has developed the first method to automatically detect methane emissions in satellite imagery?at high spatial and temporal resolution and global scale. Our team trained an AI algorithm able to parse through large amounts of data produced by the powerful Sentinel-2 satellite constellation, and autonomously identify methane signatures. In semi-arid areas, the approach can reliably detect methane emissions down to 200-300 kg/h, accounting for more than 85% of methane from the Permian Basin and is precise enough (20m pixel size) to identify the particular sources leaks and emissions come from. ?????? ???????????????? Curbing methane emissions is the focus of many recently introduced regulations and voluntary commitments around the globe. However, the systematic identification of leaks and emissions remains challenging, as sensors suffer from trade-offs with respect to detection thresholds and scalability. Ask for a demo of our cloud implementation of the technology to see how this new automated system can help with methane monitoring for your organization. www.geolabe.com ?? The paper "Automatic Detection of Methane Emissions in Multi-Spectral Satellite Imagery Using a Vision Transformer" appeared today in Nature Communications: https://lnkd.in/g74U5ndc We are very grateful for the the support we received to make this research happen, from NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) We are also immensely grateful for the support we have received in our entrepreneurial journey, from Activate, Creative Destruction Lab and Google for Startups #methane #AI

We're on the front-page of NASA's website! ?? Our work on training AIs to automatically detect methane emissions in satellite data has been featured by NASA today: https://lnkd.in/dWvDihXk We're very grateful for NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration's support, and looking forward to bringing new scalable and inexpensive methane detection capabilities to market. Stay tuned for our upcoming methane detection platform, with a launch planned for this October. Our platform will provide on-demand methane detection anywhere, every few days, down to the source level. ?? Our detection back-end is already operational in Google Cloud and we're happy to look at any number of sites of interest ahead of the launch!

?? Exciting update: Geolabe has been selected for the Google for Startups AI Academy: American Infrastructure program. We are grateful for Google's continued support as we finalize our methane detection platform, at global scale and down to the asset level!

I had the pleasure and honor to give a talk yesterday at the META seminar series organized by Stanford University and the Natural Gas Initiative! In this presentation, I talked about the importance of methane detection in the context of global warming, the limitations of existing methods, and how the AI we trained to detect methane in general purpose satellite data from ESA and NASA can overcome some of these limitations, and provide methane detection at global scale ?? *and* down to the specific sources ?? .

Geolabe has been accepted in the Google for Startups Accelerator! This couldn't be more timely, as we're finalizing and optimizing the implementation of our tech in Google Cloud. The Google Startups Accelerator will notably feature technical workshops and support. We can't wait to learn more about and incorporate the latest cloud technologies as we move towards global scale satellite data analysis using AI! Google for Startups Google for Developers

We are thrilled and honored to have been awarded the NASA Entrepreneurs Challenge! After submitting a white paper on our AI-based approach to detecting methane emissions in satellite data, and a final pitch competition, Geolabe was among the 7 winners of the highly competitive challenge, that had close to 600 entries. The award enabled us to connect with like-minded individuals and organizations involved in detecting and reducing methane emissions, —which account for a third of global warming and often come from localized and fixable (but hard to detect) leaks. The cash prize will help us fund further developments of the technology as well as the application of the technology at large scales. https://science.nasa.gov/ NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration HeroX

Geolabe is thrilled to join Activate, with Claudia Hulbert having won the prestigious Activate Fellowship ?? The two-year Activate Fellowship provides early-stage science entrepreneurs with funding, technical resources, and unparalleled support from a network of scientists, engineers, investors, commercial partners, and fellow entrepreneurs. https://lnkd.in/gGDQ2KXX

We have been hard at work developing our tech, and haven't taken the time to keep our LinkedIn page updated with all the exciting news that have been happening at Geolabe. The next few posts will be about rectifying this and celebrating the many successes our small venture has had over the last few months.
