Map Layers: US Oil & Gas

The US Oil & Gas map layer in GSatTrack aggregates data from industry databases and satellite imagery to show oil and gas infrastructure such as well sites, pipelines, refineries, and storage facilities across the United States. It lets users view the spatial distribution of these assets to monitor operations, detect anomalies, and manage resources.
