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).
