| Abstract | ||
| This research endeavors to create the 50Hz electromagnetic field atlas for populated urban areas in the city of Baghdad (Iraq). For this purpose, the 3- dimensions numerical model based on finite element method (FEM) with time harmonic system is used for simulated and modeling electric and magnetic fields surrounding the 132kV transmission system. The calculated magnetic and electric field levels are compared to exposure guidelines given by International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). To assign the dangers regions in the city, the properties of the Geographical Information System (GIS) were used. The GIS map highlighted visually the unsafe zones and facilitate the extraction of the electric and magnetic field levels of exposure. | ||
