Welcome to the ITMS Project

Welcome to the ITMS Project

ITMS (“Integriertes Treibhausgas-Monitoringsystem für Deutschland“, engl. “Integrated Greenhouse Gas Monitoring System for Germany”) is a Bundesministerium für Forschung, Technologie und Raumfahrt-funded project enabling Germany to operationally monitor sources and sinks of the three key long-lived greenhouse gases (GHG) CO2, CH4, N2O through independent measurements. The collaborative project supports data-driven GHG monitoring and the development of an operational GHG data assimilation service at the DWD.
(Deutscher Wetterdienst).

April 20-22, 2026 / WMO / Global Atmosphere Watch Programme

The Integrated Global Greenhouse Gas Information System (IG3IS) brought together scientists, policymakers, and business representatives at its Stakeholder Consultation and User Summit in late April 2026. The three-day event underscored a growing consensus: atmospheric greenhouse gas monitoring has matured to the point where it can meaningfully support climate policy but getting data into the hands of decision-makers remains a central challenge.
