Abstract

Systems, devices, and methods for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV); a trace gas sensor disposed on the UAV, where the gas sensor is configured to measure a gas point concentration; a wind sensor, where the wind sensor is configured to determine a discrete wind vector corresponding to the gas point concentration measurement; and where the discrete wind vector and gas point concentration measurement are acquired substantially concurrently and co-locally.
