[ RadSafe ] Best technique to detect DU in huge area!!!

[Rich, John]

Radsafers - -

At the last Salt Lake HP meeting I looked at a tractor trailer mounted scanner that could cover a swath about 15-20 ft wide over semi-rough terrain.  Unfortunately, I can't get to the flyer (and have a bad memory), so I don't remember the contact.  Anybody remember who it was at the Salt Lake city meeting (this year) who had the trailer mounted scanner?  Depending on the time scale, this sounds like it might be worth investigating for this application.

Dear All 

Your advice is greatly appreciated:

There is a potential to perform Radiation survey in huge area 10 km x 30 km
or more for possible contamination with DU as a result of Gulf war.

 

The area is desert, sandy and not uniform.

 

What is the best technique to perform that?

Is movable FIDLER (NaI 2inx2in) with GPS and data timing is the best?

Any advice about the cost (individually and array as example 6 with trailer)

Suitable manufacturer and contact. for complete system..

Best regards
