Read full description

RadTeamSim.Meter turns your phone into a simulated radiation survey instrument for emergency response training. Load a scenario, move through the real world, and receive GPS-driven radiation readings โ€” no kiosk, computer, or special equipment required. FOUR SIMULATED INSTRUMENTS Switch between a personal radiation detector (dosimeter), gamma survey meter (open/closed window), beta survey meter, and alpha survey meter during any mission. Each instrument displays real-time readings as your position changes within the loaded scenario. REAL-WORLD TRAINING Your phone's GPS drives the simulation. Walk or drive through your actual jurisdiction while practicing field survey procedures, instrument switching, and data recording โ€” the same workflow you would follow in a real radiological response. IMMEDIATE MISSION FEEDBACK Every mission ends with a detailed report: total dose received, highest dose rate encountered, a CDC Health Impact assessment placing your exposure into a hazard category with plain-language health effect descriptions, and a dose comparison to familiar reference exposures like common medical procedures. Your route choices and time in the field translate directly to simulated health outcomes. SAVE FIELD DATA Record surveys and observations with GPS coordinates during your mission. Authenticate into Mission Edge or CBRNResponder to transmit field data directly โ€” your simulated team appears identically to a physical-world responder. STANDALONE OR INTEGRATED Use Meter independently with its own subscription, or as part of a full RadTeamSim.Route and RadTeamSim.Flight SaaS subscription at no additional cost. RadTeamSim.Meter includes a Guest mode to explore all features of the app and experience a preloaded scenario without an account. For functionality with custom scenarios, a RadTeamSim account at radteamsim.com is required.

About

Gas Meter Training Simulator

Features
Read full description

Gas Meter Simulator puts a working multi-gas instrument in your pocket so firefighters, HazMat technicians, and instructors can build real air-monitoring judgment without burning calibration gas or tying up a live meter. Run it solo to learn the instrument, or connect two devices: one trainee holds the meter as the Sampler while an instructor drives the atmosphere as the Controller. NEW IN 3.0: SPATIAL SCENARIOS Preprogram how every gas reads as a crew moves from the street to the source. The trainee drags a position slider, or an instructor advances them stop by stop, and the meter tells the story of the atmosphere in real time. A library of 23 built-in incidents ships with the app: carbon monoxide, ammonia, chlorine, hydrogen sulfide, phosphine, ozone, fuel and solvent vapor, confined-space asphyxiants, clandestine labs, a working fire, and a worst-case unknown atmosphere. BUILD YOUR METER Before a run, the trainee chooses which sensors their instrument carries, from quick presets to any custom array. A crew on a standard 5-gas rig and a crew on a corrosive loadout see the very same incident in completely different ways, driving home the lesson that your sensor array has to match the call. TRUE SENSOR BEHAVIOR Every incident is modeled as a full atmosphere. Cross-sensitivity artifacts read on the channels they actually affect, so trainees learn to spot a false cyanide reading driven by an acid gas, a carbon monoxide ghost from hydrogen, or a chlorine number that is really an oxidizer. Readings also shift with sampling height, so heavier-than-air gases climb with the nozzle down and lighter-than-air gases with the nozzle up. ALSO INSIDE A sensor training library covering the full detector suite. Guided scenarios with stop-and-think coaching and debriefs. A meter operation guide and diagnostic pattern reference. Scenario import from a simple text file. Alarm lights, peak and min capture, fresh-air calibration, and pump-fault drills. Built by working responders for the way monitoring is actually taught. Not a game. A trainer.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: RadTeamSim.Meter at Free against Gas Meter Training Simulator's $0.99. RadTeamSim.Meter also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). Gas Meter Training Simulator's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs monthly). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
