ERIC - Environmental Radioactivity Ireland Central

A data warehouse, ERIC, has been developed to manage data related to Ireland’s annual environmental radioactivity monitoring programme and related projects which have been undertaken since the early 1980’s. ERIC contains all of the environmental radioactivity monitoring data produced by the EPA and it’s predecessors in a standard format.
