Details

This data is used in the radiological impact assessment tools PC-CREAM 08 and PACE to calculate doses to members of the public.

The spatial data sets include the 28 countries that were member states of the European Union (EU28) between 1 July 2013 and 1 February 2020, as well as some additional countries.

The principal sources used to develop the data sets for agricultural production are Eurostat and FAOSTAT. Data for population distributions is taken from the European Commission Global Human Settlement Population (GHS-POP) data source.
