Concept information

Preferred term

EPA GMAP  

Definition

  • The National Enforcement Investigations Center (NEIC) has a mobile air monitoring vehicle, or GMAP, that is equipped with analyzers for methane; benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX); total volatile organic compounds (VOCs); and meteorological and global positioning system (GPS) equipment. This combination of equipment allows for real-time monitoring and mapping of pollutants while the vehicle is in motion or stationary. The mobile platform can evaluate large geographic areas in very short timeframes to identify emission sources. GMAP can also be used to take stationary measurements at facilities. (en)
