The National Nuclear Security Administration's (NNSA) Radiological Assistance Program (RAP) Flight Path Planning Tool

—Chuck Messick, SRNS

The Radiological Assistance Program (RAP) is the National Nuclear Security Administration's (NNSA) first responder to radiological emergencies. RAP's mission is to identify and minimize radiological hazards, as well as, provide radiological emergency response and technical advice to decision makers. One tool commonly used is aerial radiation detection equipment. During a response getting this equipment in the right place quickly is critical. This session describes how the RAP Flight Path Planning Tool (ArcGIS Desktop application) helps minimize this response time and provides specific customizable flight path information to the flight staff. #ArcGIS #Desktop #.net #DOE #NNSA #RAP #SRS
