-Everyone's data site-
It is not uncommon for projects to make public offerings through crowdfunding. There is a wide range of activities from public activities such as disaster area support to investment in venture companies, and there are many cases where it is used for publishing books. In November of this year, the "data site for everyone" who has an office in Fukushima City has published a book in crowdfunding. It is "Illustration · 17 prefectures of radioactivity measurement map + reading collection" (price 2500 yen).
The "everyone's data site" is a network of citizen's radiation measurement rooms nationwide. After the nuclear accident, private radiation measurement rooms were created in various parts of Japan, and the food was measured at the request of citizens. It is an organization established for the purpose of aggregating those data and making it available to the public. From 2014, soil radioactivity measurement in East Japan has been started, and in this book the measurement results over six years (more than 10,000 food measurements, more than 3,400 soil measurements in 17 prefectures of soil measurement) are summarized. It is described in an easy-to-understand manner that you can read it.
The initial goal of crowdfunding was 2.5 million yen, but by the end of the year 1288 supporters received over 6 million yen support. Therefore, I increased the number of copies to 3000 and doubled it to 3,000 and started selling by mail, but it sold out in a month and is now printing the second print.
Why was this book so waited? The fact that there are doubts about "too high safety standards" and "too early safety declarations" in the background, and the fact that farmers are also members of the measuring room may add to the meaning of the data even more. . It is foreseen that the publication of these first citizen's new forms will increase in the future. (Senior Tsubaki, editor of the wind medium company)
