Abstract: In order to meet the requirements of radiation environment monitoring capabilities under new situation, comprehensive monitoring of land, sea, and air has become an inevitable trend. Drone aerial surveying has the characteristics of high speed, efficiency, and wide coverage, which could play an important role in radiation environment monitoring, especially in emergency monitoring of nuclear and radiation accidents. This article is based on an example of aerial survey of radiation environment around nuclear facilities, and compares it with data from fixed monitoring sub-stations and ground survey data to verify the reliability of aerial survey data and the diversity of monitoring methods. The aim is to provide reference for regulatory authorities to promote the modernization of nuclear safety supervision system and supervision capabilities.

Key words: radiation environment, drone, aerial survey, monitoring substation, nuclear emergency
