The simultaneous evaluation of dose rate and radioactivity using newly developed scintillation detectors, i.e. CeBr and SrI(Eu) was investigated for environmental radiation measurement in emergency situation. Energy dependence and linearity tests of both detectors were conducted in a low background laboratory operated by the German metrological institute and found to be applicable to environmental monitoring purposes. As a result of environmental 
ray measurements in normal condition, evaluated air kerma rate and radioactivity in/on soil for 
Cs, 
Cs and 
K seemed consistent. Results also support that methods developed in the study are reliable and applicable to the environmental radiation measurement.
