The CO2 emissions Monitoring and Verification Support (CO2MVS) is being developed to help support user’s verification activities, particularly with the influx of new space-based observations (such as through CO2M). The proposed CO2MVS framework is made of several components: prior information (e.g., initial emission estimates) and observations (e.g., meteorology, satellites) that require integration (e.g., via models) to produce outputs (e.g., revised emission estimates), that are then condensed into a decision support system (e.g., user functions). This deliverable is about the decision support system. The decision support system translates the complex data and methods into a format that meets user needs, depending on the spatial and temporal scale of interest.
