Classification: CPC G  B | IPC B  G

Claim 7:
8. A non-transitory storage medium that stores a program causing a processor to execute a method of producing for emissions data from an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), the method comprising:
receiving a first input associated with an incident location of an incident involving a hazardous substance;
receiving a second input associated with a measurement zone including the incident location;
receiving a third input associated with at least one of an air speed of the UAV or a desired spatial resolution of a plurality of emissions indicators;
producing, via a display monitor, a measurement zone image representing the measurement zone, the measurement zone image displayed on a satellite aerial map of a region including the incident location, the measurement zone image being scaled to the satellite aerial map;
producing, via the display monitor, a flight path of the UAV based on the first input and the second input, the flight path displayed on the satellite aerial map of the region;
receiving from an emissions sensor coupled to the UAV an emissions signal associated with an amount of the hazardous substances;
receiving, from a position sensor coupled to the UAV, a position of the UAV;
determining, based on at least the position of the UAV and a response time of the emissions sensor, a set of geographic coordinates associated with the emissions signal; and
producing, via the display monitor, the plurality of emissions indicators on the satellite aerial map based on the set of geographic coordinates, a size of each of the plurality of emissions indicators being adjusted to correspond to the desired spatial resolution and the air speed of the UAV.
