Using geographic information systems for radon exposure assessment in dwellings in the Oslo region, Norway [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2014 Radon exposures were assigned to each residential address in the Oslo region using a geographic information system (GIS) that included indoor radon measurements. The results will be used in an epidemiologic study regarding leukemia and brain cancer.
