About Radiation Monitoring
Environmental radiation monitoring detects anomalous increases in ionizing radiation levels that could indicate nuclear incidents, industrial accidents, or natural radon events. Calamity provides near-real-time radiation readings from a global network of monitoring stations.
Data is sourced from Safecast (citizen-science gamma radiation network), the European Radiological Data Exchange Platform (EURDEP), the RadMon global monitoring network, the US EPA RadNet system, and uRADMonitor stations. Readings are reported in microsieverts per hour (uSv/h).
Normal background radiation ranges from 0.05-0.20 uSv/h. The CalamityScore escalates significantly above 1.0 uSv/h and reaches critical levels above 10 uSv/h. Source confidence is weighted by sensor density: single-sensor readings receive a 0.7 confidence multiplier, while multi-sensor corroborated readings receive full confidence.
