This is the
MISO project
MISO develops an autonomous observation system for monitoring of emissions of CO2 and Methane, the two most important greenhouse gases. The system is modular and is suited for use in hard-to-reach areas such as the Arctic or wetlands. It combines three observing platforms (a static tower-Gas ambient monitor , a static gas flux chamber and a UAV-based observatory using NDIR sensing technologies ) with a cloud platform. The system can be operated remotely , with minimum on-site intervention.
The MISO team has expanded existing technologies: we have improved detection limit and accuracy of an NDIR GHG sensor integrated in the platforms. The static platforms and the drone base are powered by a unique geothermal device. The communication between the three observing platforms and a data cloud uses a combination of Peer2Peer, G4/G5/LTE, LORAWAN and wifi technologies.
To ensure consistent measurements, the observing platforms are optimized for energy efficient autonomous operation. This includes on-platform detection of faults through an optimized Machine Learning calibration. The cloud platform stores model updates and fault detection information together with the raw measurements.
The system is co-developed with stakeholders from academia, monitoring and measurement systems, industry and policy. It is thoroughly documented and has been demonstrated in the Arctic and in Wetland .

End of Year 2024: MISO Consortium’s First Field Test Success in Bordeaux, France ๐๐
At the end of 2024, the MISO Consortium successfully conducted its first field test at the Azur Drones test field in Bordeaux, France (Figure 1). During this test, the MISO UAV-based observatory and MISO sensing technology, which utilizes NDIR gas sensing, were tested and validated in real-world conditions. The MISO
Innovative Energy Harvesting for MISO In-Situ Monitoring
Over in Copenhagen, @TEGnology is developing a cutting-edge energy harvesting module to provide supplementary power to the MISO in-situ system! Using a heatsink together with a metal pin inserted into the ground, they are able to use the temperature difference between the air and the soil as a heat source
