Abstract: A system, device, and method for detecting leaks near an emitter is disclosed. The method includes (i) receiving, from one or more mobile sensors, a first stream of information indicative of a leak state, (ii) determining that an initial leak state exists based at least in part on the first stream of information indicative of the leak state, (iii) receiving a second stream of information indicative of a no-leak state, (iv) using a statistical model to determine that the leak state has ended based at least in part on the first stream of information and the second stream of information, (v) receiving a third stream of information indicative of the leak state, and (vi) determining that a new leak state exists, wherein the new leak state is a distinct leak state from the initial leak state.

Abstract: A system, device, and method for sensing air quality with a sensor platform is disclosed. The method includes (i) directing an air quality measurement system to a predicted high information region wherein the predicted high information region is determined based on high variance of prior air quality measurements taken at different times, (ii) directing the air quality measurement system to a predicted low information region wherein the predicted low information region is determined based on low variance of prior air quality measurements taken at different times. The air quality measurement system is preferentially directed to the predicted high information region.

Abstract: A system, device, and method for sensing air quality with a sensor platform is disclosed. The method includes (i) directing a set of mobile sensors to a coarse region wherein the coarse region has coarse size based on variance of prior air quality measurements taken at locations within a vicinity of the coarse region, and (ii) directing the set of mobile sensors to a fine region wherein the fine region has a fine size based on variance of prior air quality measurements taken at locations within a vicinity of the fine region. The variance of air quality measurements associated with the fine region is greater than a variance of air quality measurements associated with the coarse region.

Abstract: A method for assessing environmental data is described. The method includes receiving sensor data associated with each of a plurality of time intervals from at least one sensor on at least one mobile sensor platform. The sensor data is associated with position data corresponding to each of the plurality of time intervals. The position data corresponds to a plurality of positions having a characteristic distance not exceeding one hundred meters. The sensor data includes a plurality of measurements for each of the plurality of positions. The method includes determining, based on the sensor data and the position data, anomalous data including least one of a geographic anomaly or a temporal anomaly.
