In the GIS & Remote Sensing class at Clark Magnet High School, students design and build mini satellites to carry out the missions they have planned. In 2021, students won a coveted spot on the Raven Aerostar high altitude balloon with their project to measure and visualize methane and volatile organic compounds using Arduino sensors through the NASA TechRise Challenge. The project, inspired by the 2015 Aliso Canyon gas leak, takes place in two parts. The Aliso Canyon phase involves flying a weather balloon carrying a CubeSat over gas storage wells, transmitting live data to a ground station they have built. Students projected their flight path using a Balloon Trajectory Forecasts modeling program. They did a site suitability analysis for the launch and recovery sites over Aliso Canyon using ArcGIS Online. Students took into account airspace, burst altitude, wind direction and speed, accessibility and proximity to roads and freeways. The Raven Aerostar phase flies sensors over gas and oil wells in South Dakota, October 2022. Students visualize data collected on their balloon flights using ArcGIS Pro with Full Motion Video and document their project in StoryMaps.
