Mapping for Sustainability: Environmental noise and the City [PDF]

, 2013
In the last decade or so, the term sustainability has become fashionable not only among scientists but also among the general public. While this undoubtedly demonstrates that public awareness of environmental issues is increasing, it is also the case that the meaning of the concept can be elusive for many. As has been highlighted earlier in this volume,

Dynamic noise mapping: A map-based interpolation between noise measurements with high temporal resolution [PDF]

Applied Acoustics, 2016
Abstract Since the introduction of the Environmental Noise Directive, strategic noise mapping has been used as a tool for noise policy in many European countries. Although these strategic noise maps have their merits, they also have some shortcomings: accuracy in predicted noise levels in shielded or quiet areas is not very high, the maps fail to ...

Noise identification based on spectral analysis and noisy transfer function approach for fuel cells

Noise Mapping, 2020
In this study, some measurements like the current, voltage and hydrogen flow based on the fuel cell are investigated in spectral-domain as well as their time-domain representations and then, their spectral properties are extracted.

DYNAMAP - Development of low cost sensors networks for real time noise mapping [PDF]

, 2016
The Environmental Noise Directive (END) requires that regular updating of noise maps is implemented every five years to check and report about the changes occurred during the reference period. The updating process is usually achieved using a standardized

Can sensor-based noise mapping be a proxy of PM and permeability mapping?

Noise Mapping, 2021
In recent decades, road infrastructures have been the subject of numerous studies, aimed at ensuring reduced air and acoustic pollution. On the other hand, several studies showed that another important problem is dust load.

On the effects of rough ground and atmospheric absorption on aircraft noise

Noise Mapping, 2022
The noise received from an aircraft is modified by atmospheric attenuation and reflections from the ground. The interference of direct and reflected waves is simplest for a flat ground, whereas multiple reflections can occur for rough ground or ...

Development of an open-source road traffic noise model for exposure assessment [PDF]

, 2015
This paper describes the development of a model for assessing TRAffic Noise EXposure (TRANEX) in an open-source geographic information system. Instead of using proprietary software we developed our own model for two main reasons: 1) so that the treatment

Noise pollution in rail transport. Case study: Baghdad subway

Noise Mapping, 2022
Noise pollution is one of the environmental factors that severely threaten humans’ mental, emotional, and physical health. One of the most significant sources of this pollution is the noise generated by traffic and urban transportation, mainly the urban ...
