Online Database: International Nuclear Information System (INIS) and Other Nuclear Info Databases

The INIS, formally a subscription database, is now open access (free). It's produced by the International Atomic Energy Agency.

Established in 1970, INIS represents the world's largest database of scientific and technical literature on a wide range of subjects from nuclear engineering, safeguards and non-proliferation to applications in agriculture, health and industry.

Currently, the INIS Database contains over 3 million bibliographic records and almost 200,000 full-text nonconventional documents, consisting of scientific and technical reports and other non copyrighted information.

Also Available for the INIS Searcher:

1) Multilingual Thesaurus
2) Introductory Guide (PDF)

The IAEA also provides access to several other databases. Some require registration. They are found on the NUCLEUS Home Page.

Incident Reporting System for Research Reactors (IRSRR)

The Incident Reporting System for Research Reactors (IRSRR) is an international system through which participating Member States exchange operational experiences to improve the safety of the research reactors. Once you have registered yourself on NUCLEUS, please send an email to IRSRR.Contact-Point@iaea.org to request access to the resource.

Food Irradiation Clearance Database (FICD)

A database on country approvals of irradiated foods for human consumption.

Power Reactor Information System (PRIS)

PRIS is a comprehensive data source of nuclear power reactors in the world.

Radiation Protection of Patients (RPOP)

Information to help health professionals achieve safer use of radiation in medicine for the benefit of patients.

Marine Information System (MARIS)

The IAEA's Marine Information System is a relational database, based on GIS (Geographical Information System), covering the distribution of radioactive and stable isotopes, and in the near future also other tracers (organic compounds, trace metals) in the marine environment.

Click to view the article Quilting big data threads
Thursday, 24th May 2012

Recently I have found myself cooing over visualisation maps (and heat maps) of health and well being resources. The content rich data is overlayed with mapping technologies, and some interesting themes and patterns are emerging.


Click to view the article The fallacy of information overload
Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

A lot of the talk around social media in the last year has been around information overload. Social media has provided us with new and exciting ways to create content. But it has also meant learning new ways to manage and engage with social media tools. Are we teetering on the edge of an information overload precipice?


Click to view the article Information overload: fact, fantasy or filter failure?
Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

Information overload is a figment of your imagination. Or a failure of your filter. Or a symptom of your technological submissiveness. Depends on who you ask.


Click to view the article Newsdesk: tracking millions of pieces of information a day
Tuesday, 22nd May 2012

What if you had to sort through 3.5 million articles and social media posts a day and try to pull out the most relevant items for your organisation? What if you then had to cobble it all together into something readable for your top groups and executives in your organisation?


Click to view the article Alacra Compliance adds managerial oversight
