actions by provid<strong>in</strong>g an estimation and assessment of the area affected by the<br />

released radiation.<br />

5) Builds the geographical <strong>in</strong>formation system (GIS) by employ<strong>in</strong>g an electronic map<br />

on a 1:5,000 scale with the radius rang<strong>in</strong>g 40 km from the center of a nuclear<br />

power plant site.<br />

6) Analyzes the <strong>in</strong>formation obta<strong>in</strong>ed from the monitor<strong>in</strong>g of the environment<br />

radioactivity levels across the country with an onl<strong>in</strong>e system.<br />

7) Operates a system for fast <strong>in</strong>formation exchanges <strong>in</strong> the case of radiological<br />

accidents.<br />

8) Operates a video conference system for communications among the radiological<br />

preparedness organizations.<br />

9) Provides technical support for the emergency preparedness and response, to the<br />

central and local autonomous governments.<br />

2.1.3. Features and Functions of the AtomCARE System<br />

Functions of Information Collection, Analysis and Dissem<strong>in</strong>ation<br />

1) Collects and analyzes the safety <strong>in</strong>formation (parameter values and functions) of<br />

the nuclear power plants.<br />

2) Collects and analyzes the meteorological data.<br />

3) Analyzes the environmental radioactivity data.<br />

4) Estimates the source terms and the amounts of radioactive materials released<br />

5) Assesses the dispersion amounts and consequent effects of the radioactive materials<br />

released <strong>in</strong>to the atmosphere.<br />
