additionally to the German Weather Service (DWD). The KF
¨
data come in every
10 min, also in routine operation. In case of a real emergency, measurements from
the IMIS system are transmitted automatically in real time. The German Weather
Service automatically supplies the latest meteorological forecasts twice a day, and
far-range dispersion calculations on demand.
The incoming data together with information from the internal databases of
RODOS are used for running diagnoses and prognoses of the radiological situation
which is the basis for estimating the potential for protective actions. In addition,
health consequences and other quantities are assessed without and with actions
being taken into account. All this information assists the decision making team in
evaluating potential measures in a way that
the most suitable ones can be
implemented.
In case of a real emergency, according to German legislation, only a so-called
“lead user” has the right to initiate the emergency operation mode of the RODOS
Center and to enter a set of standard information into the electronic situation
description system (ELAN). In case of a reactor accident in Germany, the lead
user is the government of the federal state in which the respective plant is situated.
For foreign reactors the lead user is the German Federal Ministry for the Environ-
ment, except for some facilities close to the border where special arrangements are
in effect. All other users are then entitled either to run interactive calculations with
RODOS on their own or let run by the Center (A- and B-users), or to look at results
of RODOS calculations released by the lead user for access for this purpose
(C-users); different user interfaces are available for this purpose. The RODOS
