[OSM-talk] radioactivity

[OJ W]

isn't the issue here that radioactivity is like height, i.e. a
smoothly-varying value that exists everywhere and is typically
represented as gridded data (which gets converted to contours for
display).

with height, people said that the grid data was unsuitable for going
into OSM because OSM is point/line/area, and that it would be
confusing if you had huge grids of nodes for each sample of
height/noise/radioactivity/ground colour.

(the location of radioactive sources OTOH would be fine (similar to
television towers in the radio spectrum), as would 'areas marked with
warning signs' (similar to danger areas, as mentioned already))
