Patent ID: 8407011

Claim:
A system arranged to sample one or more target substances, the system comprising: a mobile unit comprising: a location device adapted to determine a first physical location of the mobile unit; a contact device operably coupled to a sample substrate, wherein the sample substrate comprises a flexible tape including at least polyethylene terephthalate (C 10 H 8 O 4 )and adhesive associated with the flexible tape and the contact device being adapted to contact a first portion of the sample substrate to a number of target substances from the first physical location; a computing device adapted to correlate the first physical location of the mobile unit with the first portion of the sample substrate; and a locomotion device adapted to move the mobile unit from the first physical location to a second physical location; an analysis unit comprising a chemical analysis device adapted to perform a chemical analysis of two or more portions of the sample substrate to provide a chemical analysis result; and a mapping unit configured to communicate with the analysis unit and the mobile unit, wherein the mapping unit is adapted to associate the chemical analysis result of the two or more portions of the sample substrate with a geometric map of the first physical location and the second physical location.
