Description

Among the monitoring stations include the RN42 which is located in Cameron Highlands, Pahang, Malaysia. Generally, the task to monitor the status and result of the radioactivity spectrum is quite a tedious job. The radionuclide analyst at the International Data Centre (IDC) in Vienna, Austria analyzed around 21 to 25 spectrum data every day. Automatic products help the analyst to perform subsequent interactive analysis. However, from the National Data Centre (NDC) point of view, the task of monitoring the result is only part of their other routine task. Consequently, they could miss important events that happened at their stations that require immediate response. This paper aims at discussing the development of a simple alert system for monitoring the health of the RN42 station. The preliminary data (PREL) which is collected and received every two hours are chosen in this study as the parameter of interest, including the existence of natural radionuclides such as Beryllium-7 (Be-7) and Sodium-24 (Na-24) as indicator. The alert system has been developed using Python and integrated with existing client email software. Alert will be sent to the authorized recipient to their smartphone using Telegram Bot and could be displayed in a simple webpage.
