A method and data processing system for monitoring radioactive emissions includes providing a processor, the processor having a plurality of potential data input channels, providing data input to the processor through two or more of the potential data input channels, that data input being generated by an instrument, combining all the two or more data inputs in the processor, the processor being capable of handling data input from at least two of each of the following groups: (i) a gamma detector, a low resolution gamma detector, a high resolution gamma detector, a beta detector, an alpha detector, an ion detector, an X-ray detector, a neutron detector, a detectors responding to passive emissions, a detector responsive to active emissions, a detector responsive to a transmission source; and (ii) a distance measurer, such as a range finder, a visual radiation detector, such as a still camera and/or digital camera and/or video camera, a measurer of weight, a measurer of mass, a measurer of size; the method further outputting information based upon combining all the data inputs.
