This poster introduces an easy way to process high resolution, low background gamma-ray spectrometry data in the context of geochronology such as OSL dose rate determination. It enhances a previous work allowing field gamma spectrometry spectra processing (Lebrun et al., 2020). The gamma project, written in the R language, offers a complete solution for the processing of gamma spectra, from their importation to the determination of K, U and Th contents. This package provides a transparent, interoperable and reproducible workflow by making all the code public.
