GHGSat ESA Third Party Missions Program: How to Access Free Methane Satellite Data
The GHGSat ESA Third Party Missions program gives qualified researchers, government agencies, and scientific institutions access to high-resolution satellite methane data at no cost. This on-demand webinar walks through exactly how the program works, what the data looks like, and how to submit a winning application. Register to watch now.
GHGSat ESA Third Party Missions Program Opens Satellite Methane Data to the Research Community
The GHGSat ESA Third Party Missions program is one of the most direct routes for researchers to access facility-level methane emissions data from space without commercial cost.
GHGSat joined the ESA TPM program in 2022, making its high-resolution satellite methane monitoring data available to the scientific and institutional research community through a structured application process. For researchers working on emissions inventories, climate modelling, environmental policy, or industrial methane attribution, this program provides access to a dataset that would otherwise require commercial procurement. This webinar tells you how to access GHGSat emissions data for free.
What the Webinar Covers
GHGSat’s Director of Business Development for Europe, Carlos, and Technical Operations and Service Delivery Manager Bryn Orth-Lashley spend over an hour walking through everything a researcher needs before applying. Register to watch and hear:
- How GHGSat’s satellite constellation detects and quantifies methane emissions, including the spectral methodology behind the data
- A full breakdown of the data products available through the GHGSat ESA Third Party Missions program—resolution, observation footprint, and delivery format
- The step-by-step application process: what a winning project proposal includes and what reviewers assess for scientific merit
- How observation scheduling and site prioritization work once your project is approved
- Live Q&A from over 200 attendees covering technical questions on absorption bands, project confidentiality, regional capacity, and tasking frequency
How to Apply Through the GHGSat ESA Third-Party Missions Program
Every application requires a project proposal specifying your research area, your objectives, and the expected outcomes of your project. Reviewers assess the scientific merit of each proposal before granting access. The full walkthrough of the application process, along with detailed answers to the most common researcher questions, is in the webinar recording.
