The Convention on Early Notification of a Nuclear Accident and the Convention on Assistance in the Case of a Nuclear Accident or Radiological Emergency are the primary legal instruments that establish an international framework to facilitate the exchange of information and the prompt provision of assistance in the event of a nuclear or radiological emergency, with the aim of minimizing the consequences. The IAEA has specific functions assigned to it under these conventions. The arrangements provided between the IAEA, the IAEA’s Member States and/or Parties to one or both conventions, all other relevant international intergovernmental organizations (herein referred to as ‘international organizations’), and other States for facilitating the implementation of these conventions — specifically concerning those articles that are operational in nature — are documented in the Operations Manual for Incident and Emergency Communication, EPR–IEComm (2019).
The International Radiological Information Exchange (IRIX) is an Extensible Markup Language (XML) information exchange format for the web based exchange of relevant emergency information and data among national and international organizations involved in the response to nuclear and radiological emergencies.
This publication is an attachment to EPR–IEComm (2019) and provides a reference description of the IRIX Format version 1.0. The publication includes the format’s conceptual information structure and representation in XML.
The document draws on the work of the Work Groups and Expert Groups that were established under the International Action Plan for Strengthening the International Preparedness and Response System for Nuclear and Radiological Emergencies.
