The surface radioactivity concentrations of the radon progenies, 214Pb and 214Bi, were estimated from NaI(Tl) pulse height distributions during rain. The improvement in estimation errors caused by considering geometric structures around measuring points and infiltration of radionuclides was discussed. The surface radioactivity concentrations were determined by comparing the count rates at the full-energy peak ranges between observation and calculation with the electron-photon transport code EGS5. It was shown that the concentrations can be underestimated by about 30 % unless the obstacles around the detector or infiltration of radionuclides are considered in gamma ray transfer calculations at measuring points, where there are many tall obstacles, or the ground is covered with unpaved areas.
