Abstract

A method is for automatically mapping the radiation in a portion of a building () using a robot vehicle (). The portion of the building includes a plurality of building surfaces (). The method includes acquiring () a 3D map () of a portion of a building (). The 3D map () includes a plurality of segments (), each representing a substantially flat building surface. The method further comprises applying () to each segment () a plurality sectors forming a grid of sectors (), each sector () having a border (); physically marking, by the robot vehicle (), the border () of each sector () with paint on the corresponding building surface (); and for one or more sectors (), scanning, by the robot vehicle (), with a radiation sensor () each sector (), to measure the radioactive radiation within that sector.
