Solutions / Atmosphere and climate

Bring atmospheric observations into your environmental work.

Find data for the locations, measurements, and periods you need. Combine published satellite products with weather, station records, and facility information to investigate patterns, prepare reports, or create a review dashboard for your team.

The work you need to do

Connect atmospheric observations to your investigation.

01

Find observations for an investigation

Search atmospheric and imagery products around a facility or region. Compare their observation dates, measured quantities, coverage, and quality before choosing what to acquire.

What you take away

A data selection or order brief with the measurement and delivery requirements.

02

Put a reported plume in context

Review a published detection alongside wind information, nearby facilities, and your investigation records. Preserve the difference between an observation and a proposed source explanation.

What you take away

A dated evidence package for specialist review and follow-up.

03

Compare patterns across time

Explore consistent atmospheric or surface-temperature products over your region. Join local measurements and distinguish a short-term anomaly from a pattern supported by a longer record.

What you take away

Regional charts with observation counts, units, and comparison periods.

01 / Acquire the data

Order for your location.
Specify what matters.

Request data for any location on Earth, including a facility footprint or wider atmospheric region. Compare published open products and suitable commercial collection options; actual coverage, measurement capability, and delivery conditions are confirmed for the request. Acquisition can be the complete task.

Measured quantity
Specify the gas or physical variable, units, data product, and ground area represented by each measurement.
Time and coverage
Choose historical periods or a future collection window. Check actual usable observations and distinguish acquisition from publication dates.
Quality and context
Retain retrieval flags, cloud conditions, calibration information, and the wind or station observations needed to interpret the product.
Purchase and use
Confirm full price, collection conditions, delivery timing, and rights for internal review, client reporting, or publication before ordering.
  • Published atmospheric products
  • Imaging spectroscopy
  • Thermal observations
  • Weather and station records

Just need the data? Acquiring it is a complete outcome. Use delivered files in your own tools where the license permits, or continue with analysis and apps in Milkypad.

02 / Run your own analysis

From observations to a reviewable investigation

Use the assistant to organize the data and run your analysis, with expert review where interpretation requires it.

  1. 01

    Define the investigation

    Add the region or facility list, relevant dates, measured quantity, and question. Include operational records or station measurements you already hold.

  2. 02

    Acquire and inspect

    Select suitable products, review any purchase, and check units, footprints, quality flags, and observation times before combining sources.

  3. 03

    Analyze the pattern

    Compare eligible observations and reference periods. Ask for charts or spatial summaries that keep missing data and method differences visible.

  4. 04

    Record the next action

    Export the findings with supporting observations, add reviewer notes, or create an app for repeated facility and regional reviews.

How AI-assisted analysis works

03 / Build and customize your app

Atmospheric Evidence Review

A proposed no-code dashboard for reviewing observations by facility or region, with dates, quality, contextual measurements, and investigation notes kept together.

01 / Data inputs

Define the region and measured quantity

Select atmospheric products by the quantity, spatial scale and observation window needed. Keep weather and local records alongside the request.

  • Product coverageWhere measurements apply
  • Observation timingThe relevant comparison window
  • Weather contextConditions affecting interpretation

02 / Review a layer

Review an atmospheric pattern

The translucent bands illustrate a spatial observation pattern. They are not measured concentrations, a forecast or proof of source attribution.

  • Source hypothesisCheck against independent information

03 / Use an app

Organize an environmental evidence review

An app can keep selected observations, regional comparisons and follow-up notes connected for researchers and environmental teams.

  • Source contextAttach the operational record
  • ObservationInspect the product quality
  • Reference areaPrepare the period comparison

Prepared scenes and records show how a workflow could look. These are illustrative locations and layers, with no live data or analysis.

Illustrative app brief
Build a review app for these facilities with an observation timeline, wind context, quality filters, and a place to record follow-up findings.

Describe the tool and the changes you need in ordinary language. The AI assistant helps build it; colleagues use the resulting maps, tables, and controls without writing code.

  • Add review notes and follow-up status
See how a saved app is used

Observation history

A map and timeline linking each available observation to its product, units, and acquisition date.

Review package

Charts, contextual data, and reviewer notes prepared for an internal or client discussion.

Investigation list

Locations requiring additional observations or independent measurement, with the reason for each follow-up.

Use the result with context

Keep detection, attribution, and quantity separate

A reported gas concentration above the background level does not by itself establish its source or an emission rate. Non-detection does not establish zero emissions. Use the product’s detection limits, relevant weather, and independent evidence to guide interpretation.

Questions for your workflow

Plan the work
around your needs.

Can I just acquire the data?

Yes. Data discovery and ordering are valid outcomes on their own. Specify the region, dates, measurement, and intended use; analysis or an app is optional.

Can I combine observations with our monitoring records?

The intended workflow joins your station, facility, and investigation records to suitable observations. Check that the units, timestamps, areas represented, and type of measurement are comparable before combining the values.

Will the app provide continuous facility monitoring?

Its history reflects available observations and their publication times. The intended refresh behavior is defined for the selected sources; satellite coverage does not imply continuous observation of each facility.
