NRSC representatives took part in retraining and maintenance trainings organized and conducted by the Department for Combating Terrorism and Nonproliferation of the National Nuclear Safety Administration to keep Armenian emergency response personnel prepared and up to date should they need to respond to a radiological incident. The course centered on the Spectral Advanced Radiological Computer System (SPARCS), a versatile gamma radiation detection system used in cars, trucks, boats, and aircraft for emergency response operations.
SPARCS can be deployed for a wide range of radiological sources, conducting background surveys and portal monitoring at major public gatherings and providing border crossing surveillance.
