We have carried out a mid-infrared survey of 3CR radio galaxies by extracting all ISOCAM observations of such objects from the ISO archive. The goal of this survey is to investigate the prevalence of hot dust in galaxies at a typical redshift of about 1. The data were calibrated in a uniform manner. A total of 79 radio galaxies were detected. To analyze these data, we have constructed a set of synthetic spectral energy distributions by solving the radiative transfer equations of dust clouds with AGN as primary heating source. We will discuss the motivation and application of these models to our survey.
