Design of the KETALE web application to improve collaborative emergency management

摘要

KETALE is a database and Web application intended to improve the collaborative decision support of the Finnish Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority (STUK) and of the Finnish Meteorological Institute (FMI). It integrates distributed modeling (weather forecasts and dispersion predictions by FMI, source term and dose assessments by STUK) and facilitates collaboration and sharing of information. It does so by providing functionality for data acquisition, data management, data visualization, and data analysis.
