Offshore Emissions Monitoring$400Kvalue2021start2023end

C-CORE and GHGSat are developing a means to monitor offshore platform Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. The Offshore Emissions Monitoring (OEM) innovation builds on several sensors and the success of recently launched GHGSat high-resolution satellites (Iris and Hugo) in detecting the smallest GHG emissions ever measured by satellite. This project will advance OEM from concept validation with offshore platforms to an operational application solution ready for implementation. The application domain is offshore operators, government environment departments, and regulatory bodies. The drivers for im

Sensor integration on a Canadian coast guard vessel to assist in characterization of the ice environment$279Kvalue2021start2022end

The collaborative research Project develops a scientific research methodology to deploy sensors aboard an ice-going ship (Canadian Coast Guard Icebreaker CCGS Henry Larsen) in order to measure ice severity. Ice severity is related to a number of physical properties of ice, including: ice strength, ice thickness, ice age, ice coverage, ice piece size, pressure within the ice pack, etc. There is a significant body of scientific knowledge related to measuring certain ice properties from a ship but there are significant gaps in this knowledge. One of the main research gaps is that previous researc
