Radiometric Grid of Australia (Radmap) v4 2019 filtered terrestrial dose rate

The filtered terrestrial dose rate grid is a derivative of the 2019 radiometric or gamma-ray grid of Australia, made of a combination of over 600 individual survey grids. The radiometric, or gamma-ray spectrometric method, measures the natural variations in the gamma-rays detected near the Earth's surface as the result of the natural radioactive decay of potassium (K), uranium (U) and thorium (Th). The data are collected on airborne geophysical surveys conducted by Commonwealth, State and Northern Territory Governments and the private sector. The terrestrial dose rate grid is derived as a linear combination of the filtered K, U and Th grids. A low pass filter is applied to the unfiltered grid to generate the filtered terrestrial dose rate grid. The grid cell size is about 100m (0.001 degrees).
