Short summary
The Fugitive Emission Distributed Sampling (FEDS) system is used to measure emissions from local-scale sources (up to ~1×1 km). FEDS uses a state-of-the-art gas analyser linked to many sampling locations. Controlled amounts of methane were released to test the accuracy of the FEDS system. Results were promising even when using different models to estimate the amount of methane released. Results were better when the wind was consistent. FEDS could be used for measuring emissions over many months.
