Databases of natural radioactivity in Umbria in vector format

The natural radioactivity of Umbria was determined through the UMBRIA-RAD project, which defined the distribution of natural radionuclides and radioactivity of cosmic origin with complementary investigation methods, including sampling of rocks and soils and overflights, followed by detailed laboratory analyses in order to determine also the effective dose of natural radioactivity.

The databases, available in shapefile format, are as follows:

• Database of overflights with in-flight measurements of natural radioactivity

• Database of rock samples containing information on lithology and measurements of radioactivity of natural origin of the samples analysed

• Soil sampling database containing information on lithology and measurements of radioactivity of natural origin of the samples analysed
