Summary:The AEC and the nuclear industry have historically been committed to environmental control of nuclear effluents. A valuable tool in this control is a sophisticated aerial radiation detection and tracking system operated for the AEC by EG&G, Las Vegas, Nevada. The components and applications of this system are described, and typical missions are illustrated.
