In this work, large nuclear radiation and CO2 readings have been achieved in Falluja city; hundreds of measurements have been collected in many places and streets. The vast data was processed by a new data visualization method, which makes all the data appear on the map using Google Earth Pro software. The lowest average exposure of ionizing radiation in the air is 1.314mSv/y for the first part of Falluja sector1, while the highest one is 1.5768mSv/y in sector2. The average radiation exposure in the air for people in Falluja city is 0.9732 mSv/y.
