Modernization of the Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute Radiation monitoring network
Description
Radiation monitoring SHMU has a long tradition. Its beginnings go back to 1962, when the institute was entrusted with its operation due to the need to monitor the contamination of the atmosphere by nuclear weapons testing. Several changes have taken place during its operation. One of the most important in recent years is the total exchange of measuring technology and the creation of new information system. The aim of modernization is 30 pieces of gamma probes located at meteorological stations. The data will be collected in a new information system and provided to data exchange partners: the European Commission, the Radiation Warning Center in Vienna, the Meteorological Service in Budapest, the State Office for Nuclear Safety of the Czech Republic and the Nuclear Regulatory Authority of the Slovak Republic. Currently, the role of monitoring is mainly to provide an early warning system for radiation. (author)
