AbstractThe reconstructed fallout map consists of a point dataset, containing deposition densities of radiocesium and the geographic coordinates (WGS84) of the median points of the quarter grid squares (250 m x 250 m mesh). It should be noted that the detection limit of 137Cs deposition density for the airborne monitoring surveys was set to below 5 kBq m2 to evaluate deposition densities in less contaminated areas, and a value of zero was assigned instead. The reference date of the combined fallout map is the same as that of the third airborne monitoring survey, July 2, 2011. ---Kato, H., Onda, Y., Gao, X., Sanada, Y., Saito, K.
