The capability to survey large areas quickly in case of radiation leakages and nuclear disaster is crucial. It saves time, man effort, and protects the operators using remote detection. Thus mapping background radiation of large areas is of primary interest when data can be acquired and analyzed real-time. The DRAGoN project provides a safe and fast method of inspections of nuclear pollution and contamination. It is characterized by its capability of distinguishing between neutrons and gamma radiation types. The system compactness and mobility also permits autonomous measurements and navigation and provides a detailed picture of the radiation levels or contamination surrounding the environment.

Abstract
The capability to survey large areas quickly in case of radiation leakages and nuclear disaster is crucial. It saves time, man effort, and protects the operators using remote detection. Thus mapping background radiation of large areas is of primary interest when data can be acquired and analyzed real-time. The DRAGoN project provides a safe and fast method of inspections of nuclear pollution and contamination. It is characterized by its capability of distinguishing between neutrons and gamma radiation types. The system compactness and mobility also permits autonomous measurements and navigation and provides a detailed picture of the radiation levels or contamination surrounding the environment.
