In order to meet the yield’s expectations, nowadays agriculture could even be a threat to the environment. The growing number of the world’s population and the fast-industrial development tend to overexpose the soils and arable fields. The developed technology, methodology and training opportunities are available to IAEA Member States upon request and are already being implemented in some countries with the Agency’s support.For the past decade, UAV has proved to be applicable in many technological spheres. The data collected using the UAV systems developed by the IAEA and validated by Fukushima Prefecture can be used to assess potential radiation risks and help establish appropriate remediation, decontamination and nuclear waste management plans and strategies in Japan.Ī detailed IAEA technical document of the project results, including instrumentation calibration, methodology validation, in-situ dose rate measurements and mapping of the radioactive waste temporary storage sites in Fukushima Prefecture will be made available publically. UAV-based technologies will be crucial for advancing radiation monitoring, including enhancing the application of environmental mapping and improving long-term monitoring of contaminated areas, explained Miroslav Pinak, Head of the IAEA Radiation Safety and Monitoring Section.
