Citizen Monitoring in the Czech Republic progress achieved during the last year

Original language description

The presentation describes progress in spreading of citizen monitoring in the Czech Republic achieved during the last year and future plans for years 2018 and 2019, it follows up to the presentation provided during the last NERIS Workshop 2017 in Lisbon, Portugal. The first part describes involvement of the public into the citizen monitoring, showing significant increase especially after the nation-wide presentation, in media (especially TV, newspapers, etc.) of the possibility of providing by SURO both the measurement devices and support to volunteers from public, schools and selected institution. The cooperation is based on mutual profitable manner: SURO provides the equipment and necessary scientific support (manuals, guides, information and tools, etc.), the public perform the measurements and provides the results to the central database operated by SURO. The second part describes software tools for the field of radiation protection developed under SURO guidance by students of the Faculty of Civil Engineering of the Czech Technical University, mostly within the context of their bachelor´s and master´s thesis. These tools are aimed at presentation and processing of data gained during field measurements in the form of map outputs including the citizen monitoring results (but not only them). All these tools are developed in the form of specialised extensions (plugins) for the Open-source Geographic Information System QGIS, and - including the full documentation and source code – released under the GNU General Public Licence, so that all these plugins are freely available for public. Presented at the NERIS Workshop - Adapting nuclear and radiological emergency preparedness, response and recovery to a changing world - Book of Abstracts; 25.4. – 27.4.2018, Dublin, Ireland.
