How Gas Utility Leak Survey Mapping addresses it

Gas Utility Leak Survey Mapping combines installed sensing and application software to survey broad utility service territories and identify georeferenced methane sources, including hard-to-access locations. Plume imagery, position, rate, and supported source context help teams separate priority findings from broad search areas. Operators use the resulting dashboard, alert, or workflow to target ground verification, isolate hazards, schedule repair, protect crews, and preserve survey evidence. This creates a repeatable response to the identified physical operating condition.

What it is

Gas Utility Leak Survey Mapping is a leak detection, site security solution by Bridger Photonics, delivered as Public SaaS, serving Energy & Utilities.

How it works

The operator supplies asset geography and survey requirements, and Bridger builds a flight plan for the covered facilities or corridor. An aircraft- or UAV-mounted Gas Mapping LiDAR sensor scans the physical site and records methane plumes with position and imagery. Bridger processes and quantifies the observations, identifies supported source locations, and delivers results through Bridger Command, alerts, or reports. Authorized teams review priorities, dispatch field crews, repair or investigate equipment, and retain the resulting evidence for operational and compliance review.

Why teams choose it

Location and asset data

Survey broad utility service territories and identify georeferenced methane sources, including hard-to-access locations

Supported data exchange

Flight records are processed and delivered through Bridger Command or reports; the public materials do not specify a required network transport

Operational analytics

Plume imagery, position, rate, and supported source context help teams separate priority findings from broad search areas

Maintenance workflow

Target ground verification, isolate hazards, schedule repair, protect crews, and preserve survey evidence

Deployment context

Designed for natural gas distribution utilities and municipal operators across neighborhoods, dense urban service areas, individual districts, and multi-city network programs

Role-based visibility

Authorized users can review current status, history, and operating exceptions
