Laboratory for Nuclear Technologies Applied to the Environment
Looking for Partnership Looking for Extra EU Funds
The Laboratory for Nuclear Technologies Applied to the Environment (NucTechLab) is an R&D center for nuclear technologies applied to human and environmental health issues and was established in 2008 at the University of Ferrara and the Ferrara section of INFN.
NucTechLab has a consolidated expertise in environmental monitoring and in hardware and software development, with particular focus on automatic sensors for proximal-remote multiparametric (gamma, thermal, infrared and RGB) acquisitions. NucTechLab performs in-situ and airborne gamma-ray spectroscopy surveys and fast radiological characterization of an extensive number of samples for NORMs contamination.
The know-how of the Laboratory members includes spectral, multivariate and geostatistical analysis for thematic cartography and proximal-remote sensing techniques applied to precision farming. NucTechLab took active role in multiple founded projects with national and international partners from different backgrounds, fostering trans-disciplinary and cross-sector approaches.
