Abstract
The uncertainties associated with airborne gamma spectrometry (AGS) measurements analysed using a spectral windows method, and associated detection limits, have been investigated. For individual short measurements over buried 137Cs activity detection limits of 10kBqm-2 are achieved. These detection limits are reduced for superficial activity and longer integration times. For superficial activity, detection limits below 1kBqm-2 are achievable. A comparison is made with the detection limits for other data processing methods.
