OpenRadiation vs RadMap

Looking to know the level of radioactivity around you and assess your exposure to ionising radiation? Thanks to this application, and a compatible sensor, you can measure radioactivity. You can also contribute to a citizen science project, by helping to create a collaborative data base of radioactivity measurements in the environment: OpenRadiation (published under an Open Database License). You will then be able to share your measurements using the application and view the data in the application or on the website www.openradiation.org. Create an account on the website www.openradiation.org, and obtain a compatible sensor (see the list of compatible sensors at www.openradiation.org). Activate Bluetooth under your mobile, configure your sensor to measure radioactivity, and publish your measurements. If you do not have a compatible sensor, you can always enter your measurements manually on the website or via the application. OpenRadiation currently brings together the following scientific and academic partners: IFFO-RME - training network in major educational risks -, IRSN - public expert in research and expertise on nuclear and radiological risks -, Planète Sciences – association contributing to the scientific and technical culture of young people - and SORBONNE UNIVERSITE Fablab - digital fabrication and rapid prototyping workshop, open to students, staff and the general public.

Live ambient radiation readings, on one map. RadMap gathers open data from Korea's national monitoring network (IERNet, operated by KINS), Japan's national network (RAMIS, operated by the Nuclear Regulation Authority), France's Téléray network (operated by ASNR, the French nuclear safety and radiation protection authority), and the Safecast citizen sensor network, and shows the current ambient gamma dose rate. WHAT YOU CAN SEE - Live readings from roughly 490 official Korean monitoring posts - Japan's official network across all 47 prefectures, plus the dense grid around nuclear facilities - France's official Téléray network: about 450 stations across mainland France, its overseas territories and around nuclear sites, updated every 15 minutes - Safecast citizen sensors worldwide - Map, list and per-station detail, with the trend over time BUILT SO THE NUMBERS CAN BE READ - Every dose band carries a text label such as "Normal" or "Slightly high" alongside its colour. Colour is never the only signal. - Readings are compared to familiar amounts: one X-ray, one flight, a year of natural background. - Where many stations overlap, they are grouped and shown as an average dose. - All figures use tabular figures, so the layout never shifts as a value changes. WHAT THIS APP PROMISES - The summary at the top of the screen covers Korea. It is calculated from the live readings of official Korean stations, never a pre-written sentence. If any of them rises above its normal band, it becomes an alert. - Every reading carries a provenance badge. Government networks and citizen sensors are never blended together. - Citizen sensors are not cross-calibrated, so they are never used to judge the picture across Korea. - No ads are shown while any official station is above its normal band.
