Overview

The SkyHub Software Package for Methane Sniffer is SPH Engineering's dedicated add-on that integrates contact-type methane sniffer sensors with the SkyHub onboard computer. Delivering automated, georeferenced methane concentration data acquisition synchronized with UAV position and telemetry, it enables close-proximity aerial gas detection for pipeline leak confirmation, landfill emissions mapping, and industrial facility inspection — with real-time concentration monitoring via UgCS throughout the mission.

Close-Proximity Methane Detection. Georeferenced. Real-Time.
The SkyHub Methane Sniffer Software Package integrates contact-type methane sniffer sensors directly with the SkyHub onboard computer via dedicated firmware. Unlike remote laser detectors that measure from altitude, methane sniffers operate at close proximity to the source — ideal for low-concentration leak detection, anomaly confirmation, and detailed infrastructure inspection passes. Sensor initialization, configuration, and data stream management are handled automatically from mission start. Methane concentration data is captured continuously, timestamped, and georeferenced with UAV GPS position — producing gas concentration maps ready for GIS analysis and regulatory reporting. Live data streams to the UgCS companion application for real-time operator awareness.

Contact Sensing. Precision Where It Matters. Methane sniffers detect gas concentrations at close proximity to the source — making them the ideal tool for confirming anomalies identified during remote surveys, detecting low-concentration leaks, and conducting detailed inspection passes over pipelines, valves, and infrastructure at low altitude.

Real-Time Gas Monitoring. Detect Leaks in Flight. Live methane concentration data streams from the sniffer sensor to the UgCS companion application on the ground station throughout the mission — giving operators immediate visibility of concentration spikes, leak locations, and survey coverage before the drone lands.

Georeferenced Gas Maps. Regulatory-Ready from Landing. Methane concentration data is captured with synchronized GPS position throughout the mission — producing georeferenced gas maps that integrate directly into GIS platforms and reporting workflows for pipeline integrity documentation, environmental compliance, and regulatory submissions.

The SkyHub Software Package for Methane Sniffer by SPH Engineering is the dedicated software add-on that integrates contact-type methane sniffer sensors with the SkyHub onboard computer. Combining SkyHub firmware with a companion UgCS application, it enables automated methane concentration data acquisition, real-time gas monitoring, and georeferenced data logging — transforming any SkyHub-equipped UAV into a precision aerial methane survey platform for close-proximity leak detection, pipeline inspection, and environmental emissions monitoring.

About Methane Sniffer Integration

Unlike laser-based remote methane detectors that measure gas concentrations from altitude, methane sniffers operate at close proximity to the source — making them ideal for detecting low-concentration leaks, confirming anomalies identified during remote surveys, and conducting detailed inspection passes over infrastructure at low altitude. The SkyHub software package manages sensor data acquisition, logging, and real-time display throughout the mission.
