ValueDefinition
BackgroundMeasurement of environmental background. The data shall be recorded without subtraction of intrinsic activity.
CalibrationMeasurement to be used for any type of calibration (e.g., energy, stabilization, efficiency).
ForegroundMeasurement of an unknown radiation field. The data shall be recorded without subtraction of environmental background or intrinsic activity.
IntrinsicActivityMeasurement of the radiation intrinsic to the radiation instrument, without contribution from the environment or other sources.
NotSpecifiedThe object being measured by the instrument cannot be specified by the user or radiation instrument.
