The AISPECO airborne methane detection system combines the HySpex SWIR hyperspectral camera with the AISPECO HELIUX LITE airborne pod to detect, localize, and quantify methane and hydrocarbon emissions from safe stand-off distances.
Using reflected solar radiation in the short-wave infrared (SWIR) spectrum, operators can rapidly inspect large areas of infrastructure without the need for extensive ground surveys.
Methane (CH₄) strongly absorbs solar radiation at specific wavelengths in the Short-Wave Infrared (SWIR) region, particularly near:
The HySpex SWIR sensor captures hundreds of narrow spectral bands, allowing detection of subtle absorption features caused by methane plumes.
