Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, and apparatus for remote reprogramming of an automotive controller and determining and reporting vehicle carbon emissions using a local device, a client device, a technician device and a system server. The local device is connected to the automotive controller and is wirelessly connected to the client device. The client device is connected to the technician device through a system server. Programming configurations, including firmware, settings, and parameter updates, are selected from a technician device, sent to the system server, and uploaded to local device using J2534 communication protocol. The client device receives the fuel consumption data from the local device and sends the data to the system server. The system server determines the carbon emissions based on the fuel consumption and reports the emissions to a third-party to certify carbon offset.

Abstract: The invention disclosed provides a network of master controller and node arrays which all communicate with a system server, a client device and an administrator device. Each of the master controller and node arrays is equipped with an ERT system, and various seismic sensors to monitor a geographic perimeter for surface and sub-surface trigger events. Upon detection of a trigger event, each of the master controller and node arrays executes a sensor monitoring routine to determine the approximate path of travel, velocity, acceleration of the trigger event. The master controller and node arrays further conduct an ERT survey to determine the presence of anomalies which may indicate sub-surface activity related to the trigger event.
