Radon mapping

Radon mapping involves creating detailed representations of radon gas levels across different areas, such as neighborhoods or buildings. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can pose health risks when accumulated indoors. Mapping uses measurements collected from various locations combined with geographic data to identify areas with elevated radon levels. This helps homeowners, health officials, and policymakers understand where radon risk is higher, guiding testing, mitigation efforts, and policies to reduce exposure. Essentially, it visualizes where radon is most concentrated, enabling targeted actions to protect public health.
