DE-Radiation interactively shows you the distributed radiation measurement stations in Germany and their measured radiation values. With the help of this app, you can also search for the nearest measurement station in your vicinity and view the current and past measurement values. In addition, DE-Radiation provides a summary of all the measurement stations located in Germany, their operational status, and average measured values. The data displayed in the app is based entirely on the ODL monitoring network of the Federal Office for Radiation Protection (BFS), with the option to view radiation values up to 365 days in the past. If you allow the app to locate your current position, you can determine the distances to the individual stations and find the nearest station to you. This app is made based on a private project and has no ties to the Federal Office for Radiation Protection (BFS). For questions, change requests, or suggestions, we are of course very grateful at any time: info@app-anthems.com
