The State Environmental Monitoring - The electromagnetic fields monitoring

The spatial dataset concerns electromagnetic field monitoring (PEM), which is carried out as part of the electromagnetic field monitoring subsystem of the State Environmental Monitoring coordinated by the Chief Inspector of Environmental Protection. The basic assumption of electromagnetic field monitoring is the assessment of electromagnetic field levels in the environment and the observation of changes in relation to the values of permissible levels specified for places accessible to the public. Starting in 2021, due to the entry into force of new implementing regulations (Regulation of the Minister of Climate and Environment dated December 15, 2020 on the scope and manner of conducting periodic studies of electromagnetic field levels in the environment OJ. 2020 item 2311) has changed the scope and manner of conducting periodic studies of electromagnetic field levels in the environment. Measuring points are determined for each province in each city as part of a permanent monitoring network on a two-year cycle, and in each rural municipality as part of research monitoring on a four-year cycle. The scope of conducting studies of electromagnetic field levels in the environment shall include measurements of the intensity of the electric component of the electromagnetic field for a period of 0.5 hours in the frequency range of at least 80 MHz to 40 GHz.
