About

Graphing Earthquake, Radiation and Water Data in Japan is made from various data sources which are quoted below and underneath each image. I made these as quite a few people are getting confused with all the numbers floating around and to show in an easily viewable format the levels that are being stated.

NOTE: THESE GRAPHS HAVE NOT BEEN UPDATED SINCE 2011.04.19

Radiation Levels for Fukushima Area Graphs.

Information

The Radiation Graphs are made from data from monitoring posts setup by the Prefectural Offices, TEPCO and NISA. I am focusing on these as they are only in Japanese and provide a different view on the MEXT Radiation Data that everyone else is graphing. Please note that the graphs do have different scales depending on the data. All Radiation readings are converted to μSv/h for consistency.

Thanks & Notice

Thank you to all the people on Twitter who have also been providing valuable and accurate information about the events since the Earthquake, Friday 11th March 2011.

To everyone who is following the Earthquake, Radiation and Water Graphs, please note that I will usually no longer updating these files after 2011.04.09 00:00 JST. I want to thank everyone for the support and to the people who have viewed the graph page in the past 4 weeks more than 100,000+ times. I hope this has helped everyone to make sense of all the numbers floating around easier to understand. It's now up to the Government / Prefectural Offices to make these graphs to help people understand more clearly.

Many thanks to @gakuranman @1rick @Mutantfroginc @tokyoreporter @martyn_williams and @daniel_garcia_r for all their excellent updates, coverage, help with the graphs and understanding of radiation levels. Also thanks to all the other graphers and visualizers who made the graphs from the MEXT and SPEEDI data sets.

CSV Files and original Apple Numbers files I have been working with have been uploaded for anyone to use.
