The strong radiative forcing by atmospheric methane has stimulated interest in identifying natural and anthropogenic sources of this potent greenhouse gas. Point sources are important targets for quantification, and anthropogenic targets have the potential for emissions reduction. Methane point-source plume detection and concentration retrieval have been previously demonstrated using data from the Airborne Visible InfraRed Imaging Spectrometer-Next Generation (AVIRIS-NG). Current quantitative methods have tradeoffs between computational requirements and retrieval accuracy, creating obstacles for processing real-time data or large data sets from flight campaigns. We present a new computationally efficient algorithm that applies sparsity and an albedo correction to matched the filter retrieval of trace gas concentration path length. The new algorithm was tested using the AVIRIS-NG data acquired over several point-source plumes in Ahmedabad, India. The algorithm was validated using the simulated AVIRIS-NG data, including synthetic plumes of known methane concentration. Sparsity and albedo correction together reduced the root-mean-squared error of retrieved methane concentration-path length enhancement by 60.7% compared with a previous robust matched filter method. Background noise was reduced by a factor of 2.64. The new algorithm was able to process the entire 300 flight line 2016 AVIRIS-NG India campaign in just over 8 h on a desktop computer with GPU acceleration.
