Safecast Report2017: Part 2.1-Issues-at-Fukushima-Daiichi-finalSafecast
This is part 2.1 of the 2017 Safecast Report. It is a 66-page A4-size print-quality pdf that provides a detailed description of conditions at the damaged powerplant. Sections are devoted to the overall plans for decomissioning, the spent fuel pools, contaminated water issues, the search for melted fuel debris and plans for extracting it, and other issues of importance. It begins with an 8-page introduction that describes the available sources of information, official and otherwise, and their relative credibility.
This is the Japanese translation of the Safecast Report 2016. It describes the activities of Safecast through March 2016, as well as developments at the Fukushima Daiichi NPP, and consequences for the environment, evacuees, food, and health.
Presented by Sean Bonner at SCAQMD "Making Sense of Sensors" conference, Sept 2017. Diamond Bar, CA
Safecast has been called "the most successful citizen science project yet." Started in March, 2011 in response to the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Powerplant accident, it initially focussed on collecting and publishing independent radiation measurements from affected areas in Japan but quickly achieved global scale. The open Safecast radiation database now contains over 75 million measurements, the largest of it's kind ever. In addition to gaining influence within the IAEA and other corners of the radiation expert community, it has become the subject of research by data analysis and visualization specialists. This presentation will describe key aspects of the Safecast project, its primary principles, and lessons learned that may be of relevance to others seeking to implement similar environmental monitoring projects.
What Safecast does: A quick overview of the Safecast project, and some of the key milestones we’ve passed along the way.
Why open?: Openness is built into every aspect of the Safecast project. Why is this important?
Plan for success: Why it’s important to plan ahead for massive scaling of environmental datasets.
People, not devices: Without an active community, the devices are just chunks of plastic.
Agility: Safecast’s tiny development teams punch way above their weight. How do we do it?
Education is the best communication: People participate because they want to know, and once they do, they want to share it.
On the horizon: We have a few new things in the works.

This document provides an executive summary of the Safecast Report, which details the ongoing work of the Safecast project and the situation at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant five years after the disaster. The summary highlights that Safecast continues to develop open source radiation monitoring hardware and software, collect and share radiation measurement data, and conduct outreach activities. It also provides an overview of key issues still facing the Fukushima cleanup such as decommissioning plans, water management challenges, and environmental remediation efforts.
1) Safecast is a citizen science project that collects environmental data through mobile and stationary sensors. It has grown significantly since 2011 and now has over 43 million radiation measurements spanning over 70 countries.
2) Safecast classifies its projects into three categories: Drivecast for mobile sensors, Pointcast for stationary sensors, and Pocketcast for sensors that pair with mobile devices. Its flagship mobile radiation sensor is the bGeigie Nano.
3) Key Safecast activities and developments discussed include expanding mobile and stationary radiation networks, collaborating with local governments on city-wide radiation mapping, developing a sensor sharing program, and publishing its first peer-reviewed scientific paper on its methodology.
1) Safecast was founded in 2011 to crowdsource radiation monitoring data in Fukushima after the nuclear disaster, when little official data was available. It developed its own open-source radiation monitoring devices and mobile app to map radiation levels.
2) Over time, Safecast grew into an international volunteer network that has collected over 42 million data points across 70 countries. It continues to advocate for open data and independent monitoring to fill gaps left by official sources and raise awareness of environmental issues.
3) By making its data freely available online, Safecast has provided a more detailed picture of radiation levels than official government sources. It aims to encourage continued study of and transparency around issues like radiation through open and collaborative
