Abstract
 The Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) developed a technology to create a radiation distribution map for the bottom of agricultural reservoirs in order to promote the agricultural regeneration in the areas that had been damaged by the accident of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. Further, as a technology transfer to the private enterprises, Also, as a private transfer of technology, Midori-Net Fukushima (Chairman: Masao Masuda) and JAEA signed a technical guidance contract. The two organizations established the effective measurement condition based on this technology. Using this technology, we can visually observe the radiation distribution. It is expected that the technology will be useful for the planning of measures against radioactive materials and confirming the effect of the measures.
