This is a list of area codes in the Commonwealth of Virginia. 276 — Southwest corner of the state including Bristol, Galax, Martinsville, and Wytheville (September 1, 2001 as split from 540). 434 — South central area including Charlottesville and Lynchburg (June 1, 2001 as split from 804).
The area radiation monitor will measure the ambient radiation, usually X-ray, Gamma or neutrons; these are radiations which can have significant radiation levels over a range in excess of tens of metres from their source, and thereby cover a wide area. Gamma radiation "interlock monitors" are used in applications to prevent inadvertent exposure ...
Radiation Exposure Monitoring (REM) is a framework developed by Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE), for utilizing existing technical standards, such as DICOM, to provide information about the dose delivered to patients in radiology procedures, in an interoperable format.
The area colored red indicates the southeast corner of Virginia served by area code 757. Area codes 757 and 948 are telephone area codes in the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) in Virginia. They serve the Hampton Roads metropolitan area and the Eastern Shore of the state. Area code 757 was established July 1, 1996 in an area code split of ...
Safecast is an international, volunteer-centered organization devoted to open citizen science for environmental monitoring.Safecast was established by Sean Bonner, Pieter Franken, and Joi Ito shortly after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in Japan, following the TÅhoku earthquake on 11 March 2011 and manages a global open data network for ionizing radiation and air quality monitoring.
The NRQZ includes portions of West Virginia and Virginia and a small part of Maryland. The National Radio Quiet Zone (NRQZ) is a large area of land in the United States designated as a radio quiet zone, in which radio transmissions are restricted by law to facilitate scientific research and the gathering of military intelligence.
As a result, the system monitoring radiation levels in the 30-km (19-mile) so-called exclusion zone in the forests around the plant is currently not working, Energoatom said in a statement.
Radiation monitors in general have a number of process-control applications in nuclear power plants; [9] a major CPAM application in this area is the monitoring of the air intake for the plant control room. In the event of an accident, high levels of airborne radioactivity could be brought into the control room by its HVAC system; the CPAM ...
