Certainly there would be significant engineering problems involved if we had to develop the survey technology and methodology from scratch, and more problems still if we first needed to confirm that such engineering is even achievable.
Fortunately for us in this case, aerial radiological surveying has long since been reduced to practice. [1] [2] The detection equipment described in those references is on the order of tens of thousand times more sensitive than consumer-grade G-M counters, and is commercially available. [3]
