Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The research and engineering operations performed to clean and remove radioactive contamination from the Azgir test site improved levels of radiation in and around the site.After the operations, the possibility of contamination of personnel and the local population from radiation doses in the soil that exceed maximal permissible values for radiation were eliminated.
