16:10 VALIRENE

VALIRENE is a two year project to:
1) perform a detailed evaluation of the IRENE models against in situ datasets and other radiation environment models (including ECSS);
2) consolidate and (cross-) calibrate in situ datasets;
3) perform a detailed evaluation and comparison of the UNILIB and IRBEM libraries;
4) develop a toolkit to facilitate model validation activities

Speakers: Daniel Heynderickx (DH Consultancy BVBA), Pete Truscott (Kallisto Consultancy Ltd)
