CREATIF Certification Workshop, Berlin Oct. 5-6th 2010

" European Certification System for CBRNE Sensor Systems and Devices"

The first day is focussed on detection, identification and monitoring of chemical and nuclear materials to exchange information on existing situations. On the second day technical conditions, requirements and demands for the development and establishment of a European certification system on CBRNE detection equipment and the role of CREATIF within the future system have been discussed by testing experts and stakeholders. Experts, providers, decision makers and CBRNE related stakeholders were invited to participate in the workshop and to discuss the road map of the development of a future certification system for CBRNE sensor systems and devices.

All presentations, where authors agreed to the publication on the web can be found below.
