The Gas Analysis and Sensing Group (GASG) is intended to bring together manufacturers, users, laboratories and academic departments having technical interests in gas sensors and their applications, including environmental monitoring and health and safety. Initially supported by the Department of Trade and Industry, it is now entirely self-funded via annual subscription fees from the membership.
Its interests encompass research into, and the development and manufacture of, all forms of gas sensor, including electrochemical, solid-state, optical and system-based units along with the appropriate instrumentation and characterisation apparatus. It also addresses applications from alarms for atmospheric pollution to the monitoring of special gas mixes for industrial processes.
The Group organises three colloquia each year - often hosted by a leading company and including tours of that company's facilities - and publishes a Newsletter and a volume of proceedings after each. The December meeting each year includes the Annual General Meeting.
The  membership includes representatives from almost all of the gas sensor and equipment manufacturers in the UK along with the leading university, government and private laboratories working on the various aspects of gas sensing and monitoring. The GASG also has an overseas membership and maintains contact with organisations in other European countries, the USA and Japan.
