(Received October 17, 2012)<br />

We carried out aerial radiation monitoring (ARM) of all Japan area in order to investigate the<br />

influence of the radio cesium which was emitted into the atmosphere by disaster of the Fukushima Dai-ichi<br />

nuclear power plant of Tokyo Electric Power Co., Inc.. AMS can measure a gamma ray quickly by flight<br />

from 300 m height above the ground. Moreover, ARM has an advantage which can grasp self-possessed<br />

quantity distribution of an air dose rate and radioactive cesium in "field", and is visually intelligible.<br />

Although there were apparatus and the technique of ARM in our country, sufficient preparations for<br />

wide area monitoring were not made. Therefore, it fixed based on the method of the U.S. Department of<br />

Energy (DOE) about the method of the conversion to all radiation dose, and the conversion method to<br />

radiocesium deposition and the method of mapping.<br />

It is possible to discriminate from a background (cosmic-ray, self-contamination and natural nuclides)<br />

at the time of western-part-of-Japan measurement by improving of the method in parallel to data<br />

acquisition.<br />

By this monitoring, it was able to check about the distribution situation of the air dose rate of the<br />

Japanese whole region, or the radioactive cesium deposition. Here, the measurement technique and a result<br />

are described.<br />

This report was summarized for results that JAEA carried out as commissioned business by "Investigation<br />

of radionuclide distribution using aircraft for surrounding environmental survey from Fukushima Daiichi<br />

nuclear power plant" of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology.<br />
