Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory



For any NARAC dose rate prediction, a user may use the Tool to calculate the dose that may be received by a team following a prescribed monitoring route or by people following an evacuation route.

The route is defined by:

  • Click on the map
  • Using the “10-point plan” default
  • Importing a route via CSV file

The dose received will be calculated from the radioactive material deposited on the ground. Radioactive decay will be taken into account if time varying dose rate predictions are available or the prediction is for deposition from a nuclear detonation.
