I would recommend that you take a look at Canberra's offerings in this
area.  They have large area and container counting systems.

I believe that EG&G may also have similar equipment.

Subject: measuring devices


Within the framework of the decommissioning of nuclear sites and for the
control of the levels of radioactivity of the wastes, noticeably for the
Very Low Activities, VLA (few to 100 Bq/g), various equipments are being
used. I would be interested to get documentation on equipments for :
- radioactivity measurements in situ (ex : imaging of the radioactivity in
a contaminated area)
- control of barrels, containers, ..
- gates with total activity measurements or with identification of nuclei,
at minimum with rejection of natural radioactivity, and possibly with
software to account for the  attenuation of the radiation in the container
(possibly a truck).
Thanks for any contribution.
