Always Safe nuclear power plant has been catering the needs of St' Himark citizens by producing and providing power. Moreover, it is also one of the largest employers in the city. However, the plant was not compliant with international standards when it was constructed and is now aging. When the earthquake strikes the city, there is a possibility of contamination from the damaged nuclear power plant. Hence, the goal of the project was to engage the community and demonstrate that the nuclear plant’s operations were not significantly changing the region’s natural background levels of radiation.

With the data collected, we will use visual analytics to to analysis the radiation levels of the Static and Mobile sensors located around St'Himark:

  • Identify areas where radiation over background is detected based on radiation measurements over time from both static and mobile sensors.
  • Analyze uncertainty in the measurement of radiation across the city and whether the radiation measurements reliable enough to locate areas of concern
  • Summarise the state of radiation measurements at the end of the available period
