The characteristics of magnetic fields in different environments are systematically collected under the RAPID Engineering Project {number_sign}3. Exposure to magnetic field is due to area sources and to local sources at exposure points. This paper presents only a summary of results concerning exposure to area sources. The data presented in this paper show that area fields differ significantly between sites of the same environments. This makes it difficult to characterize each environment type by a field value. Characteristics of the site, such as age and number of floors of the building, probably have a large effect on the magnetic field, independently on the specific use of the building. Magnetic field exposure at exposure points is likely to show a greater dependence on the environment type.
