Ultraviolet Monitoring in Norway on the WEB
A measuring system for natural UV radiation has been established in Norway. The system consists of seven multiband radiometers, model GUV-541 from Biospherical Instruments Inc., organised in a network. The measured results, stored on a central server, are made public via an Internet service - http://uvnett.nrpa.no/, alternatively through a page http://uv.nrpa.no/ providing general UV information. The service includes information about the measured UV radiation on the specific sites expressed by the UV index and the dose in MED for any specific day, week or year since 1995 when the system started to operate. A description of the WEB site is presented.
