Nature: Googles fleet of city-mapping cars are now working to measure urban natural gas leaks. The technology giants collaboration with the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF), announced on 16 July, equips Googles Street View cars with sensors to detect methane leaking from ageing city pipes, through city streets and into the atmosphere. The sensors were developed by researchers at Colorado State University in Fort Collins. The project has released online methane maps for Boston, Massachusetts; Staten...

Yale Environment 360: New maps from Google reveal the locations of natural gas leaks in U.S. cities and highlight the extent of "fugitive" methane emissions associated with the nation's aging infrastructure. The Environmental Defense Fund partnered with Google Street View to map leaks in the nation's natural gas system, using cars equipped with air-quality sensors that collected millions of readings across Boston, Indianapolis, and Staten Island. The analysis found thousands of methane leaks in highly-populated areas...
