Due to the mass destruction of the area, the first few days’ data were not able to collect (not  only the destruction, but the rescue was the first priority). Therefore, the scientific committee  used models to simulate and analyse the data (might not be accurate on the early stage). After  the rescue, many countries have provided data to assist the works. For the long‐live radioactive  substances, the data was able to collect with the ground soils. Furthermore, prediction can be  made with the pass experiences and the basic models.
